ノースカロライナ州の海沿いにある小さな町で運命的な出会いを果たして結ばれた、トラヴィスとギャビー夫婦。しかし、ギャビーが交通事故に遭って寝たきりになってしまう。事故から3か月が経っても目覚めない彼女のもとを定期的に訪れては、アメリカ南部の小さな町を舞台にしたラブストーリーを読み聞かせるトラヴィス。物語を通して自分たちの愛と絆の深さをギャビーに伝えようとしていたが、彼らには大きな試練が待ち構えていて…。

With her husband jailed for Wall Street-based fraud, Faith has to leave behind her luxury life in New York to return home to North Carolina and the widower father and dutiful older sister she left behind. Together, they have to deal with the buried emotions of sudden death of Faith’s mother years ago, and learn to be a family again. Like the Prodigal story, Heart of the Country is a tale of a father’s unconditional love. He simply wants a relationship with his children, and once that relationship is restored, he begins to create healing for his broken daughter. Her marriage has to be rebuilt, her belief in herself, and her peace with her mother’s death all come together through the quiet, selfless guidance of her loving father. The novel, written by Rene Gutteridge from the original screenplay by filmmaker John Ward, takes us from the glamour of Manhattan to the open beauty of the fields of rural Columbus County, North Carolina as the timeless tale of the Prodigal Son is reborn!

A young woman with a mysterious past lands in Southport, North Carolina where her bond with a widower forces her to confront the dark secret that haunts her.
