Attorney Jemini Rivers never planned to return to her childhood home in Riverview, the town that bears her family name. Being called back to deal with the house and property left to her after the death of her grandmother brings all the feelings of hurt and betrayal she had spent years pushing aside. She stopped caring about the people and the town long before she even became an adult.

Deputy Steph Williams grew up in Riverview and has given her heart and soul to the people and the town. She wouldn't choose to live anywhere else. She also gave up on the hope that Jemini would return many, many years ago... or did she?
