Widowed, shop keeper, and transplanted Texan Jessica Allen fights to protect the green in the New Hampshire town of Tidbury, settled by her late husband's family. 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. But has he partnered with an unsafe builder? How much money will he lose if he breaks the contract to please Jessica? Her position on the board of selectmen may cause a conflict of interest and force them apart. Will more people have to die to save the green?
