With little in common except a property line, these two very different families quickly find themselves at odds over an historic oak tree in Valerie’s yard.



But as they fight, they fail to notice that there is a romance blossoming between their two teenagers. A romance that will challenge the carefully constructed concepts of class and race in this small community. A romance that might cause everything to shatter…
