Can you find real love when you've always got your head in the clouds? Maybell Parish has always been a dreamer and a hopeless romantic. But living in her own world has long been preferable to dealing with the disappointments of real life. So when Maybell inherits a charming house in the Smokies from her Great-Aunt Violet, she seizes the opportunity to make a fresh start. Yet when she arrives, it seems her troubles have only just begun. Not only is the house falling apart around her, but she isn't the only inheritor: she has to share everything with Wesley Koehler, the groundskeeper who's as grouchy as he is gorgeous--and it turns out he has a very different vision for the property's future. Convincing the taciturn Wesley to stop avoiding her and compromise is a task more formidable than the other dying wishes Great-Aunt Violet left behind. But when Maybell uncovers something unexpectedly sweet beneath Wesley's scowls, and as the two slowly begin to let their guard down, they might learn that sometimes the smallest steps outside one's comfort zone can lead to the greatest rewards.

And somehow, amidst such barren land, a small flower bloomed. Even though war wages on this world and living is more of a fight for survival, one sensitive soul unexpectedly finds its oasis in another. Together they reminisce, philosophise and grow. And even though fate is known to be cruel, at least he finally got to know what it's like to be unconditionally loved.

Sometimes life hits you. And while you are busy sorting it out, something else is happening already. So you start to struggle while trying to make sense of everything. And on top of that most times your head and your heat have different views on how to deal with life.
