Savannah Dawson makes her living at an advertising agency, creating commercials that link milk consumption to true love. But when it comes to tarot cards, she isn't making things up. And she has never picked a bad card - until the Three of Swords appears in her own fortune one night, promising sorrow - and a letter from her estranged mother reveals that her father is dying.
With her rebellious teenage daughter in tow, Savannah goes to Arizona expect the worst. And her fears are confirmed. Her mother is as distant as ever, her father will never recover, and the secretive wood carver helping her father build his final wish is stirring up feelings she has no use for. But hope still has a fighting chance in the town of Prescott. As the summer air grow heavy with scents from her father's lush garden, Savannah will discover a whole new magic...the kind that grows - quite literally - on trees.
