Lovejoy Spencer, a recently widowed herbalist from Salt Lick Holler, has seen the hardships of a toxic marriage and vows to shield her younger sister and two friends from repeating the same mistakes. When she sets out across the country to ensure the sisters’ safety, she meets Daniel Chance, a surly widower who still mourns the loss of his late wife. Though Lovejoy recognizes that their friendship could not sustain a romantic future—her duties back home with her medicinal‑herb practice demand her presence—she also wonders whether this encounter could offer her a new beginning.
