Across the River

Somewhere in the Arkansas Delta, Sloane Williams’s world is shattered when her fiancé dies in a tragic accident, leaving her to navigate grief, single motherhood, and a future she never imagined. Across the waters of the Mississippi, Alex Hart loses the last piece of his family with the sudden death of his twin brother. Burdened with carrying on his family’s legacy alone, he struggles to find his footing in a life forever altered by loss. When Alex and Sloane are forced to work together in the passing of the Hart family assets, these two broken worlds collide, and what begins as mistrust and skepticism slowly shifts into something neither of them saw coming. A fragile friendship that soon evolves into a forbidden attraction. As romantic tension builds and family dynamics unravel, long-buried truths begin to surface — a truth that threatens to destroy it all. Set against the rich backdrop of the rural South, Across the River is a moving story of grief, family, small town gossip, and the unexpected ways healing finds us when we need it most.
