Plot Synopsis

Nicole Cabella grew up on her family's Northern California olive ranch and is given the reigns to the family's olive oil business now that her Grandpa Frank has decided to retire. Her vision for growing the company begins with winning the local olive oil competition during the town's upcoming annual Fall Festival and expanding the building where she hosts olive oil tastings. However, her plans come under threat when her childhood crush Jake Brandini, heir apparent to the neighboring ranch and her biggest competitor, Brandini Olive Oil, visits from his home in San Francisco. By accident, he discovers the land where Nicole wants to expand may belong to his family, stemming from a decades-long feud simmering since their grandfathers ended their olive oil business partnership. When a local judge decides to resolve the land dispute by awarding it to the winner of the town's upcoming olive oil competition, it only serves to further fan the flames between the Cabella and Brandini families. But Nicole and Jake, trying to stay above the fray, begin finding common ground as they rekindle old feelings for one another. However, their budding romance is threatened as the big competition looms. Eventually, Jake makes a bold move to try and bring the warring families together, but a misunderstanding on Nicole's part just before the competition leads her to believe Jake only cares about winning. Finally, the olive oil competition arrives and after the winner is chosen, Nicole learns she's been mistaken about Jake all this time and is worried she may have lost him forever once he returns to San Francisco.
