When she inherits her late father's tavern Happy's Place, Bobbie is shocked to learn that she has a new co-owner -- Isabella, the half-sister she never knew existed.

But they're not alone -- there's also Gabby, the bartender with a love of drama; Emmett, the cook and man of few words; Takoda, the nicest waiter in Tennessee; and Steve, their brilliant yet eccentric accountant. Alongside their close-knit staff, Bobbie and Isabella will definitely figure out this new chapter together. After all, whether they're friends, co-workers or unexpected siblings... at Happy's Place, everyone is family.
