Synopsis

Sent to the country to visit rural clients, accountant Blaise Johns, doesn't know what to do when he meets a mob of sheep on the road. He accidentally runs over one of Dusty Miller's ewes and his cool, crisp competitive demeanor is dented as he tries to figure out how to make amends with a woman who's intent on busting his balls. Then there's the competition, Aaron, who isn't going to be pushed aside. 
As the out-of-towner, will Blaise step up to country life for Dusty? 
Dusty is furious at Blaise, but the man won't go away and leave her to run her farm. A sassy self-sufficient young woman, Dusty struggles to let Blaise—who's clueless about the life she lives—into her heart. 
When two worlds, country and city, come together, an explosion of differences rocks the very foundation of two people's lives, forcing them to face the future in unplanned ways and to give each other another chance.

The great statue of Apollo, which had fallen to the ground, was gradually broken up and pieces were carried away to England and France. Much of the statue, Valona knew, remained in Delos, but it lay too far for her to go and see it. Yet she was aware that it was still there and was, according to what she had read, filled with a tremendous power. One visitor to the statue had written, “It was splendid in its loneliness, its perfect beauty and its terrible power.” Valona was miles away, but as she stood looking towards the East, she could feel the magic of the young God, once thirty feet high. In her mind she could see his parted lips, his uplifted hands and his eyes gazing out to sea. More than two thousand years had passed since Apollo’s statue had been erected on the island, yet she knew in her heart that time had in no way weakened him. It was then that she began praying to Apollo with all her heart and soul. She asked him to bring her the true love she longed for. As the God of Light and Love, Apollo represented the fulfilment of dreams to all who worshipped him. ‘Help me, please help me!’ she begged. ‘The love I seek is the same love you give to the world and it is even more powerful than anything else mankind could possess.’
