'Magic can happen anywhere but in this small country town, it's extra special. International journalist Grace Taylor has in the past handled many dangerous assignments and is ready for any situation.

He wants nothing to do with being a feature in a women's magazine that his sister arranged, with her parting words, 'it's time.' He and his nine-year-old son have been on their own for two years, and happily so. Is he ready to deal with the reaction they both have when Grace blows into their home and community?' (Publication summary)
