When Baltimore lawyer Rainbow Fitzhugh returns to her hometown of Potts Landing, a colonial town on Maryland's Eastern shore, she expects to spend a few days at her mother's bed and breakfast relaxing and recharging after her fiance dumped her for his pregnant mistress. Instead, she finds the town in an uproar over a proposed housing development that will raze the old Monroe Farm and, if Rain doesn't step in, possibly Heath House Inn, the home where she grew up. As she grapples with ways to save her mother's inn, Rain runs into an old law school classmate, Sam Root, who's running Save Our Historic Inns, and who wants to join forces to push the developers out of town. Still heartsick, Rain tries to ignore the growing attraction to Sam, but when she finds him in one of the town's boatyards, working on an old log canoe, she finds she's falling for him. Meanwhile, the county zoning commissioner, Jackson Manley, has cozied up to the developers and wants nothing more than to be rid of both Rain and Sam. Can the town come together to protect its heritage while also ensuring its economic survival--and will Rain ever be able to trust again?

Arianna Hope is a child of a rich family, but doesn't act like it. She spends her free time volunteering, contributing to charities, keeping a perfect GPA, and working from the bottom up of her parent's company to learn what it's all about. She doesn't like things just being handed to her (with the exception of her personal library) and hates the rich kids at school who just live off their parents, not caring about responsibility. She finally gets her parents to fund the building of a large and expensive library for her school, because their old one is tiny and offers little help with reading and studying. When the construction is completed at the end of summer, her friend drags her to a house party to celebrate.

What happens when the player, Damon Parker has been going crazy thinking about a girl he just can’t remember? And what happens when a huge hurricane rolls in, leaving Arianna and Damon trapped alone together in their high school for a week while the hurricane passes and the roads get cleared enough for a rescue?

In 1600s Virginia, a small colonial village sprang up unceremoniously on the sacred burial grounds of the Native American people it was taken from, the Nottoway. Now, an ancient evil has been awakened in the form of Elementals known as The Bird People and it is suspected that the Nottoway Tribe has cursed the ground in revenge for being encroached upon by colonial settlers. After failed crops, still births, deaths, burnt homes and facing starvation, superstitions run rampant and the townspeople do the only thing they can think of in the late 1600s to appease these angry and destructive spirits. Give them an offering. It is quietly decided by the elders of the community, in an effort to keep these spirits of the bird people at bay, that every woman should give up her first born infant daughter to them. One such young mother cannot bear this resolution much less imagine giving up her only child. In order to keep her only child, a daughter, she makes a baby out of straw and gives that instead, bringing chaos to their puritan village. A cursed girl. The man who loves her. A questionable death.
