Description

Riveredge glows under October’s crisp breezes, its riverbanks and leaf‑strewn streets alive with the season’s promise. Into this bustling little town runs fourteen‑year‑old Jean Carruth, a whirlwind of energy and daring who’s already earned a reputation for rescuing friends and standing up to troublemakers. Her boundless spirit makes her a beloved figure, and the town’s lively rhythm seems to echo her own restless heart.

Beyond Jean, the Carruth family is a portrait of ambition and stubborn love. Elder sister Eleanor is on the brink of graduating college, determined to prove she can thrive on her own, while younger Constance has turned a modest kitchen into a thriving candy shop, defying the cautious expectations of their matriarch, Mammy Blairsdale‑Devon. Mammy’s fierce pride in her heritage clashes with the girls’ modern aspirations, setting the stage for lively debates, heartfelt support, and the kind of small‑town challenges that shape a young woman’s path toward success.
