Hearts of Riverstone Creek

🪞 One-Page Story Summary 

When mural artist Riya Malhotra returns to her quiet hometown of Riverstone Creek after five years, she tells herself it’s just for a weekend — a commissioned mural, a temporary stop, nothing more. But the stillness of the town, the gentle echo of old memories, and the presence of Aarav Deshmukh — the man she left without a real goodbye — awaken a part of her she thought had gone quiet for good.

Aarav has kept the bookstore running and the porch light on, even when the woman he loved disappeared without looking back. When she returns, he doesn’t ask for closure. He offers presence. Space. And a kind of love that no longer needs to be proven.

In a town where everything seems to move slowly except the heart, Riya must decide if she’s ready to stop running — and finally stay.

Hearts of Riverstone Creek is a tender, emotionally rich novel about second chances, quiet courage, and the love that lingers long after the last page is turned.
