Prime Video picked up Elsie Silver’s four-book Rose Hill romance saga for a series adaptation, unveiling the project at Amazon’s Monday upfront presentation.
Heidi Cole McAdams will serve as showrunner, while Marc Webb is set to direct the pilot and second episode; Temple Hill is producing.
Season 1 will adapt Wild Love, following rancher West Belmont, record-label billionaire Ford Grant and country-pop star Skylar Stone in a mountain-town family drama.
Amazon framed the order as part of its broader push into romance, saying Silver’s novels have connected with millions of readers through emotionally complex relationships.
