As Nona, her sister, Maggie, and long-time family friend, Mabel, prepare to move to a lakeside camp in Arkansas for the summer, Nona receives a package from her half-brother. The instructions he sends her say not to open the package, but to keep it safe for him. Nona doesn't like her half- brother and hasn't seen him for several years, so she tucks it away in her bag and heads to Tall Pine Lake.

Once there, it's obvious to the three gals that the camp needs a load of TLC, so they roll up their sleeves and prepare to work. It's a lovely, peaceful setting until Nona runs into a camp resident who gets under her skin. It seems to her that he's deliberately trying to make a pest of himself.

Simon is staying at Tall Pine Lake Camp, but he's no ordinary camper. He's there on a mission to protect a young woman who may have information about a very serious crime. When he sees the attractive redhead who's running the camp, he's smitten and realizes this is going to be a great summer. But he must stay on task because danger lurks in the forest and his little redhead may be the target.

This contemporary romance has mild suspense, some violence and adult themes.
