Furrowed Hearts

A Straight Row to Romance

Home economics student Annalee Blanchard hastens to get her field practicum in place, but her arrival distracts handsome farmer Turner Sloan, overturning his tractor into a gully which puts her in rescue mode. Compliant and a bit endearing, the farmer agrees to become Client Number Fifteen and seems eager to accept dietary instruction during her weekly sessions. When trouble rears its head with an elderly client, Annalee presses him for compliance using her food deliveries for leverage. Days before graduation for the Class of 1959, a shocking loss in the Home Economics Department throws her schedule into overdrive. The much-desired career opening as a home extension agent dangles just beyond her fingertips, but what will she do about the tender feelings she has for a certain farmer who lives in the opposite direction? Once the heart-touching seed of love is sown, only a farmer knows how to nurture it to harvest.
