"Magic happens all the time. You just have to look for it." That's what Livvy Sloan's Grandma used to tell her. But as the Great Depression settles over rural Georgia in 1930, her family is in danger of losing the farm. So Livvy searches for happiness creating forest sculptures in her secret woodland.The woodland is even more inviting when an Englishman on horseback begins to visit, admiring her artwork. She's drawn to Gordon Collins even though she knows a redheaded country bumpkin like her doesn't stand a chance with someone like him.Meantime, tension rises at home as the men in her family break the law to earn a living while Livvy and her sister accept a loan from the handsome Coy Whitaker to make their store more profitable. Coy has money to spare and wants Livvy to be his girl.As her family is hammered by one disaster after another, Livvy struggles to keep hope alive and - just maybe - find a little of her Grandma's magic.
