About
Southern belle Leelee Satterfield leaves her beloved Memphis, Tennessee, to follow her husband's dream of managing a quaint Vermont inn. But when they arrive, young daughters and ancient Yorkie in tow, they discover pretty fast that there's a truckload of things nobody tells you about Vermont until you live there. When Leelee is left swindled and snowbound, she's forced to confront the true depth of her Southern grit in this foreign town.
