Following her Uncle Glen’s advice, Allie opens Let’s Read Bookstore in Danton. When Maddox Stapleton arrives to supervise implementation of his foundation’s grant, there is instant chemistry between the two. But Bess, the receptionist at Glamorous You Spa and Salon and Allie’s friend, is also interested in the handsome entrepreneur. And Bess is known for getting what she wants.

The pending marriage of Bess’s recently widowed father, the downward spiral of Glen’s health, and unexpected mayhem on Main Street change the rural town from a community seeking to attract tourists to a place of intrigue. For Allie, life seems to be a pendulum swing with good experiences followed by disturbing ones.
