Late Bloomer

Winning the lottery has made Opal Devlin's life worse. She was able to quit her dead-end job, but now people constantly come to her door asking for money, and she cannot stop saying yes.

Opal sees a chance to follow her own dreams. She spends nearly all her winnings on a failing flower farm in North Carolina, where she plans to start a painting business and finally be left alone. Her plans for isolation go wrong almost at once. A furious and strikingly beautiful woman named Pepper Boden is waiting at the farm. Pepper says she is the rightful owner of Thistle and Bloom Farms and that she is not leaving.

With little else they can do, the two agree to live together on the property, though they clash at every turn. Each has her own reason to stay. Can these opposites put down roots together, or will their explosive arguments, and the attraction growing between them, burn the whole place down?
