When Jack Paris is sent to protect Helene Crawford from inept kidnappers, the game is on. Years before, Jack crushed Helene's girlhood dream of the two of them doing the happily-ever-after dance. Finally Helene has her chance for revenge and she gladly takes it. Jack once said he only wanted a woman who was loose and wild, now Helene will show him she's his kind of woman. Her goal — reel him in then walk away.

Jack's felt guilty for years at the way he treated Helene when she offered her love. He wants a chance to set things right between them. With the sweet scent of her taunting him and the promise in her eyes heating his blood, it's only a matter of time until Jack bargains with himself to finally work her out of his system.

They each have their own agenda but love gets in the way. With one interfering father, two former stepmoms and a brood of siblings to guide them through the mess of the past, Jack and Helene discover one another all over again. But will Jack have the courage to let Helene into his heart this time around?
