About the book
To leave her home was unthinkable. Marion wasn't born in Fallbeck Valley, but since coming to live with her uncle she had grown to love it. Reeve Harland's arrival threatened the peace of both the town and her life. With neighbors, she decided to fight Reeve's callous plan to turn Fallbeck into a reservoir. It seemed any easy decision, made in anger, but Marion hadn't expected to fall in love with the man she was fighting.
