The Murphys of Meadow Valley

Casey Walsh and Boone Murphy had a bright future together—until tragedy tore them apart. Now, more than a decade later, the beauty-school dropout runs Meadow Valley's family tavern and steers clear of the boy who once stole her heart—no small feat in such a small town. Boone Murphy was finally going to put Meadow Valley in his rear-view mirror, even if that meant selling his business and leaving his family's horse ranch behind. It also meant leaving Casey Walsh. Now, he's back home, and his only dream is winning back the girl he's always loved.

Dancer Beth Spence finally gets a shot at her dream—auditioning for the Radio City Music Hall Rockettes. But her audition concludes with a torn Achilles tendon and possibly the end of her dance career. When her sister, Delaney, flies her to Meadow Valley, California, to recuperate, she is reluctant to go but out of options. Beth has no idea that Delaney has set her up with a job managing widower Eli Murphy’s veterinary clinic while staying in the guest house on his ranch.

Ash Murphy sneaks home to the family ranch to escape the scandal that follows his successful country music career everywhere. He plans to rest up, get in his fair share of work on the ranch, connect with the new horses his brothers have taken in, and lay low for as long as it takes for the newest tabloid interest to blow over. Except when he arrives, his brother's guest house isn't empty; its current occupant is none other than Willow Morgan, a country singer on the rise, hoping to finally finish the last song on her sophomore album.
