Maggie finds everything has changed on the farm including their annoying new neighbor, Desmond Kinsley, who is far too involved in all their lives for Maggie's liking.
When tragedy once again strikes the ones she loves, Desmond is the only one who can help. Maggie may have to put up with him for now, but at what cost? With her heart now in jeopardy, will she stay or once again flee... leaving behind the ones she loves.
