New Hampshire of the beautiful fall leaves, picturesque Christmases, and sometimes brutal winters. She's angry to learn developers plan to use Worley Construction, a company she holds responsible for her husband's death. When a member of the board of selectmen is murdered, family and friends encourage Jessica to run for the seat. Will threats force her to compromise her principles? Will Jessica be forced to compromise to find her second chance at love?
Developer Jeff Hudson wants to build a retirement center on the Tidbury Green. Despite Jessica's opposition, he believes he can convince her of the need for the center and that its place on the green will leave plenty of room for all of the town's activities.
