In the small Massachusetts town of Harlow, third-grade teacher Emma Caldwell and freelance journalist Jack Harlan meet by chance when her dog causes a coffee spill on a spring morning. Over the course of a year—through muddy river paths, summer dock kisses, autumn apple orchards, and snowy fireside promises—they navigate the seasons of falling in love. With humor, quiet courage, and the everyday magic of ordinary moments, Emma and Jack discover that love, like the changing New England weather, is messy, beautiful, and worth every season together.
