Scarlett Crawley has done everything right, according to her. Living the life she’s always wanted in New York City, far away from her hometown. But when she receives word of her parents’ tragic demise in the vengeful waters of the Rubidoux River, Scarlett is ripped away from her luxurious lifestyle and begrudgingly returns to Devil’s Elbow. With her parents to bury, a dental practice inherited, and a long to-do list to finish her parents’ passion project, Scarlett sees no end in sight for her grief. Until she meets Henry King, a quiet, mysterious friend of the family who wants nothing more than to help Scarlett through her time of need. But Henry has a secret. And with the ever-present danger of the flooding river, falling in love might not be the best thing for those who inhabit Devil’s Elbow.
