Angie's job as a library manager is jeopardy. She is one salacious display or outrageous event away from unemployment. Grant is newcomer to town, moving to Nice County to be closer to his ailing aging parents.  

Angie is in dire need of distraction, when one of Grant's suitcases flies off the roof of his car and straight into Angie's. Near-accident adrenaline, and Angie's bawdy personality overcome Grant's natural cautiousness, and sparks a road-side flirtation, that turns into dinner, and then a night of electrifying sex, that has them both wanting way more.  In the morning Grant and Angie have no regrets, just hope till they are beyond shocked to discover that his new job is to be Angie's new supervisor.

Awkwardness and dismay ensue as Angie and Grant both frantically try to create some professional distance, and cover-up their attraction so that they both can keep their jobs.  

One of the things that I love about Dade's books is how her heroes and heroines can both be essentially nice and decent people and still have terrific conflicts with each other and land is supremely hard situations.

I loved Angie — I love that she breaks the convention of the shy quiet librarians. She is brash, outgoing and vibrant.  I loved that Grant is passionate in an unconventional way and more than anything steadfast and sincere.
