When children's book author and widow Courtney Hudson agrees to go out to a club with her cousin Phoebe, little did she imagine a night of passion with a sexy Alaskan detective, Lloyd Vance. Only the night is also marked by tragedy when Phoebe is killed by a hit and run driver. Further, Courtney learns that Lloyd dated Phoebe, making Courtney leery as to whether he can be trusted. As she comes to know Lloyd better, Courtney begins to believe he is the real deal, but with the cloud of Phoebe's death hanging over their heads, Courtney wants to see justice served first and foremost, and fears that the distraction of romance and passion could impact Lloyd's ability to do his job. Lloyd Vance came to Lake Barri to work for the city's police department and escape his own past marked by child abandonment and unfulfilling relationships. When he happened upon the gorgeous woman named Courtney at club, he never knew she was the cousin of Phoebe, whom he'd gone out with a couple of times. Phoebe never affected him the way Courtney has. Now he was investigating Phoebe's death and searching for the hit and run driver. At the same time, Lloyd is falling in love with Courtney and hoping that a serious relationship doesn't hinge on his ability to solve the case. Well-meaning family and friends are only too happy to give advice and/or try to steer them in other directions. In the end, Courtney and Lloyd discover what it means when early lust gives way to all consuming love and togetherness.
