Harvest Love

Widowed Dr. Luna Gilson is trying to balance her career as a general surgeon at Seattle West Hospital with being a single parent to eight year old Andy, not usually with success. The job generally takes over, and even with that, she laments not really getting to know her patients, most who she never sees again after their recuperation. Andy, however, is the primary casualty as she is at work more often than she is at home, in the process she missing those moments with Andy, who no longer tells her of the special events in his life. Regardless, she still would accept the promotion to senior consultant of general surgery at the hospital if offered the job. On the advice of her mother, her parents currently living in Cameroon, Luna decides to take some of her vacation time to take Andy to the family pear farm two hours away in Pineview so that she can reconnect with him, and despite a country trip not being Andy's idea of the perfect vacation. Upon the retirement of the Gilsons' long time farmhand Farley Thompson, the Gilsons hired, on Farley's recommendation, Will Nash to take his place, Will a biologist who comes from a farming background. Despite a bumpy start, both Luna and Andy, who had not been to the farm since he was a toddler, begin to find a certain comfort in being in Pineville, in farm life, and in Will's company. As such, Luna has to think long and hard about her future - if it includes Pineville and Will, especially if she is offered the senior consultant job. Although he too is falling for Luna, Will, who has been secretive to Luna about many things in his life, will have to decide if she fits into his very structured future plan. Another factor in what happens is Luna's parents deciding to sell the farm, something Luna only learns after arriving in Pineview.
