This heartwarming, humorous debut novella celebrates the magic of small town and country life.

Joey Finch's world has just fallen apart. Her fiancé broke off their engagement, and she was forced to close her beloved coffee shop in Boston after struggling through COVID. In debt and behind on rent, she returns to her Midwestern hometown of Prairie Creek and her family's farm. The only problem is, no one, including her family, knows the reason for her visit. And on top of getting up the nerve to break the news, she'll have to face the strained relationship with her stubborn, old-fashioned father.

Over the course of her stay, a series of heartwarming and humorous events unfold: baking in the cozy farmhouse kitchen; catching up with the fun-loving farmhand, Huck; fending off the town gossips; and facing-off with a disgruntled rooster named Carl. A charming, quirky cast of characters make their appearance, as well, including the Book Club ladies and the Saturday "old timer" coffee group.

Before she knows it, Joey finds herself falling back in love with the place she was once desperate to escape and reconnecting with the people she left behind, including her childhood best friend, Jessie, and her high school sweetheart, Matt, who has been pining for her ever since she left town ten years ago. But after a new job opportunity presents itself, and a fateful newspaper ad finds its way into her hands by chance, Joey must decide: Will she return to Boston to rebuild the life she worked so hard to create, or will she stay and replant her roots?
