What is Big Sky River about?
Looking to take a break from New York City and put some real distance between herself and her ex-husband, Tara Kendall (Emmanuelle Vaugier) books a summer rental in a small, rural Montana town that endeared itself to Tara as a young girl. She credits her time there for her love of horses and horseback riding. Sheriff Boone Taylor (Kavan Smith) has finally found his footing after losing the love of his life. Boone is kind to his new neighbor, but he can’t deny that there’s something very special about Tara and he’d like her to stay for more than just one summer. When Tara’s stepdaughter reaches out for help, the painful realities of real life step on any dreams of life in the country. That is, unless Tara can take care of those she loves and herself, all at once.
