Forced to leave Nashville after a scandal, Savannah Walters has come home to Slippery Rock, Missouri, with a bruised ego and her singing career in jeopardy. As if that isn't humiliating enough, on her way into town she's rescued by her swoon-worthy childhood crush, Collin Tyler.
His hands are full running the family orchard and dealing with his delinquent teen sister, so Collin doesn't need to get involved with someone as fiery and unpredictable as Savannah. But the intense attraction between them can't be denied. And when disaster strikes, they'll both be surprised by who's still standing when the dust settles.

Then vs Now: When Savannah fell for Collin
Savannah Walters can’t remember a time when she didn’t love Collin Tyler – of course, she doesn’t think of it as love in the beginning. She first ‘met’ Collin when her brother, Levi, brought Collin home after school. She was nine years old, and had been living with the Walters family for two years. To that point, Levi had been ‘hers’ – her friend, her confidant (although she didn’t share any of her past with him), her brother. Once Collin came to Walters Ranch, though, Levi was no longer Savannah’s.
Kristina: What did you think about Collin as a child?
Savannah: (chuckles) What didn’t I think about him? I was jealous, at first. Jealous because then Levi had seemed like he was only mine. Sure, I never talked about my past, and I didn’t share any of my deepest secrets, but Levi made me feel as if I could. So, when Collin came along and Levi began to widen his circle of friends, I didn’t like it very much.
Kristina: What about later?
Savannah: Later…I was so much more than jealous. I was attracted and scared and halfway to head-over-heels. And, of course, I couldn’t let him know that. So I withdrew. I knew every time he walked into a room, but I couldn’t let him know that, so I kept my distance. And then, when I saw that ad for the talent show, I saw it as my chance to get out of Slippery Rock and away from that stupid crush.
Kristina: How did that go?
Savannah: (shakes her head) Not so well. I knew almost immediately that I didn’t want to be a singing star – being in front of crowds scared me, the competition stressed me out. I hated every second of it, but I also didn’t want to let my family down – not after all they’d given me.
Kristina: And then you came back to Slippery Rock – and Collin was still here.
Savannah: Yeah, and he was so much larger than he was when we were kids. He was confident and settled – both things that I wanted to be – and so, so gorgeous. I thought I’d gotten over my school-girl crush…and then we drove up behind me on the highway and I was right back down the rabbit hole!
Kristina: Any regrets?
Savannah: With Collin? Not a single one. Well, scratch that, maybe one: I wish I hadn’t kept what happened in Nashville a secret. It hurt my family, it hurt my relationship with Collin…if I could go back, I wouldn’t keep that secret. Other than that, though, not a single regret. Because I was infatuated with the boy next door when I was a little girl, but I love the man he is. Collin is strong and resilient and smart – and gorgeous. So, no regrets.
