But he can't predict the atmospheric pressure awaiting him: The town his family founded has become the center of the Transcendental Meditation movement and host to all things alternative. There are mass meditations and dosha discussions, a vegan cafe has replaced the burger joint, and all the doors now face east. Far worse, however, is what the meditating mayor has planned for the Martin family's farm.\u003cbr\u003e In a town divided between \"Regulars\" and \"Roos\" (gurus), Owen is sure where he stands--until he falls for a levitating yogi. Before he knows it, he's caught in a veritable tornado of midwesternness vs. mindfulness. Can he save the farm, get the girl, and reunite the town? Maybe . . . if he's willing to forecast a change in the weather.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sparkpress","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45132750356631,"sku":"9781940716602","price":1287.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781940716602.webp?v=1767146048","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/rooville-9781940716602","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
