“My mountain top was just a molehill in the deepest valley.” Adabelle Caroline Lee “Belle” was the bell of her own ball in a castle with glass walls. When those glass walls shattered and the house collapsed, her ball was officially over, and her Prince Charming rode off into the sunset without her. Forced to go back to her meager beginnings, she packed her bitterness, hatred, and arrogance. When she meets a town fisherman, will she shun him away, or realize he might be the king she needed all along? Holden Gunner Beckett Jr. was a country boy with big guns, strong dogs, and a line that could catch the biggest fish. He made sure he stayed out the way until the fish started jumping. When a strange fish comes into his waters, will he cast his line or let the current pull it away? He may catch his fish, but the question is whether it’s worth keeping, or should he throw it back?
