Emma Riley has come home to Rock Creek, PA to attend two
weddings and to research the revival of this small town.
But if that's not enough, the weddings being celebrated are
for her two older sisters and Emma's actually in both
bridal parties. Working hard isn't new to this smart girl,
she's proud of her sociology degree and her job at a small
college, but the emotional family dynamic might be pushing
her endurance level too far.
In an attempt to interview all the newcomers to her
hometown, Emma meets up with newbie bartender Jake Slayter.
Jake has reasons for coming to Rock Creek that he doesn't
want to share with anyone, but it's hard to keep a low
profile when you're a well-known extreme sports star. Of
course when you put the "play it safe" girl and the "risk
taker" boy together sparks are bound to fly intriguing Jake
and scaring Emma. Will they be able to find a happy medium
in their lifestyles? Will Jake confess his secret reasons
for coming to town? Will Rock Creek continue to grow and
thrive?

Where dangerously sexy men are concerned....SMART GIRLS
THINK TWICE
With her job hanging in the balance, sociologist Emma Riley
is back in her hometown of Rock Creek, Pennsylvania, for
both her sisters' weddings. As if that isn't depressing
enough, Emma also needs to stay focused on the research
project that could save her job and launch her career. Her
success hinges on sexy Rock Creek newcomer Jake Slayter.
Unfortunately, Jake wants nothing to do with Emma -- or her
big project. He has his own motives for being in Rock Creek,
and if there's one thing he can't afford, it's a distraction
in the form of a brainy beauty like Emma. Too bad Emma has
made it perfectly clear that she's way too smart to let him
stand in her way. Too bad Jake has made it perfectly clear
that he's way too smart to take no for an answer!
