Under the clamour of the Sydney Harbour Bridge being built nearby, Grace Fairweather is working in her father's grocery shop in The Rocks when she begins making her own confectionery. Her colourful creations of toffees, lollies and chocolates soon become crowd favourites, and Grace begins to dream of one day opening her own sweetshop. When the roguish but irresistible Londoner Alfie Sweeting comes to work for the Fairweathers, his ambition for her success thrills her. With Grace's natural business acumen and Alfie's creative sales skills, it seems like they could be the perfect pairing - in work and in love - but when Alfie's criminal past catches up with him, both their lives come under threat and Grace is forced to make the most difficult decision of all.
