They were in it for the fun, but never expected the storm... Life for hometown ER physician Dr. Max Lange has always been sweet. He loves his job and is dialed in socially with his family, friends, and community. But lately, something feels like it's missing. When a visiting doctor pulls him in for a hot kiss and asks him to play along in order to avoid unwanted attention from a hospital administrator, Max knows exactly what he wants and needs-the lovely Dr. Mitchell. After a tragic error shakes her confidence beyond repair, Dr. Lauren Mitchell has abandoned her career in cardiothoracic surgery and instead works as a lead medical consultant for a top cardiovascular technology company. She enjoys her simple life on the road-hotel rooms, room service, and no emotional entanglements. When a violent storm throws her into service at St. Mark's hospital, Max has only a few days to prove to Lauren that they belong together, while she must reevaluate her career...and her life. Will Max's love be enough to make River's Edge and Max her home?
