Deputy Logan Slade thought he'd inherit his old friend's watermelon farm...not merely part of it.
He loved Jim like a father, and Jim had loved him like a son. Logan spent half his life working at JS Melons. The business is in his blood, the farm in his heart. He is stunned when the elderly man only leaves him half interest in his farm, with the stipulation that he and his new partner remain co-owners for six months. How is he supposed to share it with the granddaughter of the woman Jim loved and lost fifty years ago--especially when Logan first meets her at Jim's funeral?

Shelby Nolan thought she'd inherit something small, a token of the love Jim shared with her grandmother...not a house and field of watermelons.
With no family and nothing to keep her in Houston, Shelby decides to move to the farm. She doesn't know anything about raising watermelons, but she has taken several college business and marketing classes. She believes she can help with the business side of things. Living in a rural community is a new experience, but Shelby finds the peace and quiet soothing to her battered soul.

Then someone starts digging near the old oak tree in the field at night. Logan is concerned about who's out there and what they're looking for. But he's more worried about Shelby's safety.

As they search for clues and try to solve the mystery, they find more than they seek--in each other. But Shelby has lost everyone she held dear, and with the exception of Jim and a few friends, Logan is cautious of close relationships.

Do they have enough faith in God and trust in their love to find happiness?
