On prom night eighteen years ago, Jay's date, Neve, died in a tragic accident.  Although he was not responsible, he has never been able to forgive himself.  Now going by his first name Casey, a job has brought him back home to Montana.  When he discovers that he is working with Neve's sister, Kira, the two have no choice but to confront the past if they have any hope of moving forward.  With a theme centering around the restorative, healing power of love and forgiveness, Lilian Darcy's After The Rain is another wonderful addition to the River Bend novels.  Events from previous River Bend novels that are necessary for this story are described in detail here, so it is not necessary to have read the previous novels to understand this one.  All in all, it is a  well-developed, tender women's fiction story with a tame romantic vein running through.
