Laken Mancinkus runs the only veterinary practice in Whynot, North Carolina, where she prefers treating four-legged patients to dealing with complicated humans. Her orderly world gets turned upside down when a handsome stranger from up north appears at her clinic with his dog in tow. The newcomer needs her help tracking down escaped goats that have scattered across town, but Laken quickly discovers that corralling livestock might be easier than managing her growing attraction to this outsider. As they chase wayward animals through the small Southern community, Laken must decide whether opening her heart to this Yankee is worth risking the peaceful life she has built in Whynot.
