At twenty-nine, her life was starting over. After her divorce, she quit her job and put her house up for sale. She didn't know where her life was going, but she knew where she needed to start over. She packed her car and headed to the one place that she knew would always be home, a horse farm in North Carolina.
Will Jannie be able to pick up the pieces of her broken marriage? Will she ever be able to start the family she's always wanted? Starting over may not be what she expected.

The Heart of Harvest
Introduction In the quiet hills of a small farming town, where the sun rises over golden fields and the air is thick with the scent of earth, Alexander had spent most of his life. He grew up on the farm his parents had worked tirelessly to cultivate, the vast land stretching out before him like a living, breathing testament to their legacy. But when Alexander turned 18, that legacy was no longer just something to be proud of-it became his burden to carry. His parents' untimely death left him with an empty house and a sprawling farm he was unsure how to manage. For years, Alexander struggled to find his place, feeling the weight of their absence pressing on his shoulders. The farm, once full of life and laughter, now stood silent and still, as if mourning its lost caretakers. It was then, in the midst of his solitude, that Violet entered his life. Violet was a girl from the neighboring town, someone who had always admired the farm from afar. Her passion for nature and the simple, beautiful life of farming led her to visit more often, offering help with the harvest, tending to the animals, and bringing her light into the otherwise dull corners of the farm. What began as a simple friendship soon blossomed into something deeper-something neither of them had expected. As the seasons passed, so did their bond, built on shared dreams, hard work, and a love for the land that sustained them. Together, they breathed new life into the farm, facing its challenges and triumphs side by side. With Violet's unwavering support, Alexander slowly began to realize that the farm was no longer just his parents' legacy-it was their future, together. This is their story-a story of love, resilience, and the undeniable power of working the land.Complete
