Love Returns reignites an old romance. Phin McFadden, internationally experienced botanist returns to River Bend to take the job as the new director of the botanical gardens. He has a hidden agenda. He wants to return to River Bend to convince Harriette Mitchell that she should give him another chance to build a relationship. Along the road to romance, Dr. Dockery, retiring gardens' director is murdered. Dusty and his team identify the suspect just as Lynn is stumbling on his dead body in a gardens' greenhouse. Bodies are piling up in the greenhouses. The sheriff dies raising political complications for his succession. And Rachel Teague, with the help of her friends, is elected the mayor of River Bend. It's a busy time as romance, murder and the Christmas holidays keep everyone occupied.
