Welcome to Port Russell, B.C.!

Resist all you want; love will find a way.

Port Russell, a hidden gem nestled amongst the old growth on the west coast of Vancouver Island, is the best place in the world, according to recently returned teacher Courtney Merrick. Back home to recover after her disastrous first relationship implodes, Courtney vows to focus on her career and looking after her wild grandparents, leaving love to those who still believe in it.

Her resolve wobbles when she runs into Josh Cameron, her high school bestie and secret first love, when she’s called down to the RCMP detachment to bail out her grandparents following their arrest at the Gnome Lake logging protest. When Josh and Courtney team up to figure out who is behind the escalating threat to their idyllic town, can Courtney continue to resist falling in love?

Resistance is a contemporary Canadian small- town, friends to lovers, medium heat, fade to black romance, set against the backdrop of old growth logging protests.
