You can't go home again... certainly not at 43. But when Ava's beloved grandmother lands in the hospital, love and duty call her back to her childhood home. To help her Gran and save the family's strawberry farm, Ava will have to face the man who broke her heart when they were just two kids in love. Fine. There's nothing she wouldn't do for her grandmother. She'll stay long enough to get her back on her feet and stabilize the business, and then she'll return to her life in sunny San Diego.... But when the rolling coastal hills and redwood forests start to feel like home again, and Nolan's soulful eyes and strong hands invade her dreams, Ava has to wonder if she's made a terrible mistake. Can she save the farm and nurse her Gran back to health without getting her heart broken all over again, or is she in for a world of hurt?

How can she provide for herself, never mind her niece Juniper, if she has nowhere for them to live? Summer is winding down, and Toni's no closer to finding a new home for herself and her niece than she was when she first got that gut punch of an eviction notice. When Gran points her to a safe haven that could be the perfect place for her market garden, she thinks it's a Godsend. But then trouble comes knocking the moment she gets her hands in the dirt... Silas built this little home in the redwoods to be closer to his uncle, and he isn't so sure that he wants to give it up. But Toni needs this place a lot more than he needs a vacation home, and her aging landlord needs someone who can be there all the time. Is there room for all of them in this sunny mountain meadow, or will Toni have to uproot her little family once again?
