Daisy Spencer's name is on everyone's lips. How could the sensible daughter of Trinity Harbor's self-proclaimed patriarch take in the boy caught hot-wiring her car? Whether he's a modern-day Huck Finn or not, the town is in an uproar. Daisy can ignore their nay-saying. Her real obstacle is ... that man. That man is the boy's uncle, tough D.C. cop Walker Ames, who sees his nephew as his last chance at redemption. Soon he's commuting to the charming fishbowl of a town, where everyone assumes he's seduced Daisy.
