"Escaping the rat race and the lure of gold-digging women, wealthy businessman Vance Banning moves to a small,rural retreat, telling the townsfolk that he's an out-of-work carpenter. All he wants is peace, quiet and to keep away from women. So the last thing he needs is a charitable neighbor--especially a beautiful,gracious and persistent neighbor of the female persuasion--but there's something about Shane Abbott he just can't ignore. Vance is certain his cover story will stop his lovely neighbor from getting too friendly, but Shane is determined to break down his resistance. Vance has been burned once, so only a fool would fall for the same innocent act twice. And he's no fool. But he has no idea how relentless Shane Abbott can be when it comes to giving a helping hand--or a lovng heart."

It just goes to show you that first impressions are not always best, at least in this book.
