The premise

Cabella Oil and Brandini's have been competing oil ranches for decades. However, their grand children discover they may have more in common than they realized - and sparks begin to fly.

How unusual is it?

Middle of the road, with a twist — an enemies-to-lovers arc and a second-chance romance keep it from being totally by-the-book.
