As Margaret Adams buries her late husband she comes to a shocking realisation she was widowed long before Bob dropped dead on the ninth hole at his beloved golf club.
Now, with her children grown and her unhappy marriage over, Maggie goes in search of something to make her happy. Enter Las Vegas bowling alley, Cactus Lanes!
With its neon sign, legendary chilli fries and community spirit, stepping through the doors does more than put a smile on Maggies face, it changes her life.
As she discovers the friendships shes always craved and a chance at a true love with gorgeous owner Frank Martinez Maggie comes to realise that its not about winning or losing, its about choosing your lane and striking with determination in the direction that allows you to be you.
