Retreat to Paradise Plot

Ellie Vaughn (Melanie Stone) tends to the injured and cantankerous tennis player Jordan Greer (Casey Elliott) as he heals from a shoulder injury. Though he struggles to learn to use his arm again, his attitude leaves Ellie wanting to leave him in his misery. However, Jordan’s longtime coach Neal (Brian Krause) still thinks he can return to the courts in no time. But, as Ellie and Jordan get to know each other more, they start to see each other in new ways. Jordan sees that Ellie is exactly who he wants in his life, and hopes she feels the same way.
