Marni Penning portrays Callie McCallahan, who returns to her hometown of Hoker, Kentucky, when she inherits her uncle's property. The land abuts a tree farm belonging to Tanner Patrick, who had a crush on Callie in high school, though she never noticed him. Callie's cousin is staying with her, and Penning gives her a timid voice, matching her personality. When Callie's ex-fiancé arrives, Penning exudes his smarminess, which contrasts with Tanner's caring tones. Tanner lives with his foster mother, Addie, and Penning gives her the right touch of age. Callie is out of her element at first when dealing with her uncle's farm animals, but as she gains confidence, Penning adds strength to her performance, especially as she and Tanner grow closer.
