Riverbend

Five years after the death of his wife, Dr. Mitchem Taylor is ready to share his life with someone. Only one thing stands in the way of giving love a second chance--the strictly enforced "no dating" rule. A rule that pierces his heart every time he thinks about his university assistant, Cynthia. When a handsome man shows interest in her, Mitchem must choose between love for his career or love for his beautiful assistant. 

Since the day she saw her boss, Mitchem, care for his son's knee at a little league game, Cynthia Gold has been in love with him. Pining away over a love she can never have forces her to make a drastic change--a new job thousands of miles away. But can she walk away from her life she enjoys and a boy who's like a son, or keep her heart bound to a man who may never love her.
