author: Abbot, Laura
description: YOU ARE NOW ENTERING RIVERBEND, INDIANA
  
  Riverbend... home of the River Rats -- a group of small-town sons and daughters who've been friends since high school. The River Rats are all grown up now. Living their lives and learning that some days are good and some days aren't -- and that you can get through anything as long as you have your friends.
  
  Tom Baines, one of Riverbend's favorite sons, has come home to recuperate. After the year he's had, he needs some peace and quiet. More important, he wants to reestablish a relationship with his estranged children. But he doesn't expect to meet Lynn Kendall, a woman unlike any he's ever known before. Living in a small town might just have its advantages!
