Babette Robinson changes careers and lovers as easily as she
changes hairstyles. But after losing her last job, she's
beginning to see that her feather-to-the-wind mentality can
be unsatisfying in the long run. She's been helping a string
of friends solve their relationship problems, and when one
pal points out to Babette that she could make a career out
of curing people's romantic ills, she decides to dub herself
"The Love Doctor" -- a match-mender-for-hire.
Living in Birmingham, Alabama, with its
elite class of wealthy women, Babette has access to the
ideal clientele, including the well-known Birmingham
socialite Kitty Carelle. Having unceremoniously dumped her
lover, Kitty now regrets her hasty decision and wants him
back. Trouble is, the man Kitty seeks to recapture is none
other than Jeff Eubanks -- Babette's ex! The carefree
Babette of three years ago had written him off with a shrug,
yet now she can't help remembering that he did give her the
absolute best sex of her life...not to mention his charm,
good looks, and brains.
To save her newfound
career and prove she can stick with something--if not
someone--Babette is determined to mend Kitty and Jeff's
broken relationship, but Jeff has other plans. He was crazy
about Babette when she suddenly bailed on their
relationship, and after Kitty did the same he became
convinced that no woman can ever commit. To prove his point,
Jeff issues Babette a challenge: no flirting for a week, and
he'll talk to Kitty. That is, if, after seven tempting
nights on the beach with Jeff, it's still with Kitty that
she wants him to reconcile.
