He warns Kate that the worst is yet to come. Kate loses her home and her work. Things are looking very bleak, until Daniel Groves, the new owner of Heaven Scent lavender farm takes a liking to Kate. It's not long before he asks her to marry him. But Kate doesn't feel the same way about Daniel. Despite all her struggles, Kate's biggest battle is just beginning.
