From rags to riches and back again, Dee Campbell-Stark's life has been turned upside down. Her wealthy husband Lance's untimely demise has left her in an emotionally and financially uncertain world. Lance's secret indiscretions are a past Dee now must bury along with her late-husband.
But the arrival of enigmatic and brooding Milo Phillips (Lance's estranged American cousin) changes everything. A single mother now, Dee must decide the course of her uncertain future. Will she venture deeper into her unpopular friendship with Milo and risk the wrath of the Stark family? And what exactly will an idiosyncratic, quirky girl with no real aspirations or talents (other than a smart-mouth) do with her once-charmed life?
Not a run-of the-mill heroine. Not a stereotypical male protagonist. And the combination is refreshingly different. This modern-day classic is an intelligent and amusing, yet bitter-sweet romantic tale.
