River Falls

Eight years ago, Ava and Joseph had the perfect future planned-he would go to veterinary school, she would embark on a career with an exclusive modeling agency, and they'd eventually get married and have three dogs and four children. But then a terrible accident changed everything. Unwilling to believe they could still have a future, she made Joseph promise to leave and live out their dreams without her. Joseph has never broken a promise to Ava...until now. Before he made that stupid promise to leave, they'd made each other another promise, one of forever. Now that he's done with veterinary school, he's determined to return to River Falls and show her that his promise still stands, that he loves her just the way she is. But first, he'll have to find a way to crack the safe she's erected around her heart. Fortunately, he has help: three lovable dogs, a special group of sick kids, and more than a few slices of pie. But will it be enough to convince Ava that their forever is worth fighting for? Or will he be left picking up the pieces alone?

In the wake of a very public-and very scandalous-breakup, country music star Lydia St. Peter finds herself in need of a place of refuge. She doesn't know why she thinks she'll find it with the family she never knew she had in River Falls, Tennessee, but at least the small town will offer her the privacy she so desperately craves. She never expected it to offer more-in the form of her new landlord, Liam, and his troubled teenage daughter. When single dad Liam returns to his hometown of River Falls, it's with the intention of taking care of his mother and protecting his daughter. He knows his own happiest years are behind him. They died with his wife. What he doesn't see coming is the instant connection with the new tenant staying in his mother's carriage house. As Lydia feels the pull of family and Liam allows himself to open to the possibility of love again, a new relationship starts to blossom. But when Lydia is presented with an opportunity that could rocket her to household-name status, she has to decide whether she's willing to give up everything she's gained in River Falls to chase her dreams, or if her heart has finally found its home.

Abigail knows she's the reason she and her husband Simeon have lost their battle to have a baby. It's God's punishment for her past-a past she never told Simeon about. He thinks the reason she was on the mission trip where they met was to serve God. If he learns the truth now, he'll send her packing-just like her family did. Better that she leave him first. As a Christian counselor, Simeon should be able to help his wife. And it's killing him that he can't. It seems like the harder he tries, the more he pushes her away. When she finally asks for a divorce, it's nothing he didn't expect. But it breaks him just the same. When they face yet another tragedy, will it tear them apart for good? Or can God use it to draw them back to one another-and to him?
