Levi loves the simple life and solitude. He appreciates open fields and neighbours who mind their own business. Friends think he should get married, but he has all he needs. A house he built with his own two hands, a dog as his constant companion, and a career that earns him more than he'll ever need to live comfortably. But when a pretty girl buys the shack next door, encroaching on his property and his life, he has to decide whether to fight back or give in.

Erin has had enough trouble to last a lifetime. She moved to Vista Falls to run her business and fulfill her dream of becoming a homesteader. The people are friendly, making her believe she's finally found a place to call him after a nomadic childhood and memories she'd rather forget. There's only one problem with her plan. Her next door neighbour. She didn't intend to get under Levi's skin... but he sure has found his way under hers.
