Sun, sand, and the sound of the sea. Franzi von Liebermann has a bright future ahead of her. One day, she will take over her wealthy grandmother's estate and horse breeding in Friedrichskoog. Until then, however, she must get along with the headstrong old lady. The grandmother longs for nothing more than to see her only heiress finally settled down, preferably in the arms of the well-off Johannes von Berendes. But Franzi cannot stand Johannes and has no intention of marrying him. She much prefers the daring carpenter Luke, whom she met during one of her rides along the beach. His straightforward nature and zest for life impress the young heiress. However, Franzi's grandmother still has an ace up her sleeve.
