As Leah deflects multiple romantic offers, she befriends her new neighbor Mark (Russell), a handsome farmer who teaches her methods to forecast the weather by observing signs in nature. With romance off the table, Leah and Mark grow comfortable and allow their friendship to blossom into something neither of them predicted.
