About this listen
Welcome to Paradise Valley, where the locals thrive on the rural landscape, the quirky Oregonian living, and the history of the lesbian commune that founded it.
Mixing small-town attitudes with lesbian dating? Sounds like another day in Paradise.
Joan Sheffield and Lorri Abrams have been partners for years, but their mission to have a baby has placed a damper on their love. After the most recent miscarriage, the couple has begun questioning the direction of their relationship.
Yet Joan isn't ready to give up. Her dreams of having the family she always wanted won't end because of some heartbreak and bad luck. Yet as she regroups and prepares to try again, she comes up against an obstacle she least expected.
Lorri. The partner who refuses to explain why she feels sick to her stomach every time the subject comes up.
Joan doesn't know the whole story about Lorri's upbringing. Lorri would rather drown herself in college basketball tournaments than talk about her issues. It will take the advice of some trusted locals and one bad night to potentially save these two weary souls.
Will the madness finally end?

The lanky Ariana with a flower crown in her long hair is now the big and tough Ari, Paradise Valley's strongest EMT and all-around "native gal" the other townsfolk are prepared to defend.

The isolated, sleepy little village of Timber Falls—built on the bend of a swift mountain river—swells during the summer months as tourists flock to town to run the river, lured there by the Class IV and Class V rapids. A gruesome murder of a college student—a river rat—brings the FBI to town. Lynn Carter, a disgraced LAPD detective, was offered an out—a position on a team of unorthodox FBI agents. When her commander sent her to Timber Falls—a town by only the stretch of the imagination—she had no idea she would find her peace there. No idea she might find love.

A Life in Progress
Joan and Lorn had been partners for years and are trying to have a baby. The strain of IVF, the expense and two miscarriages was destroying their relationship. March madness, good friends, a really bad night and a happy coincidence leads to a break. Fun characters and small town lives are sometimes great. Recommend.
