Can a summer fling turn into love that lasts a lifetime? Former underwear
model turned entrepreneur Clay Stryker has loved, tragically lost and vowed that
he'll never risk his heart again. After making his fortune, the youngest of the
rugged Stryker brothers returns to Fool's Gold, California, to put down roots on a
ranch of his own. But he's frustrated to discover that even in his hometown, people
see him only for his world-famous...assets. Firefighter Chantal (Charlie) Dixon grew up
an ugly duckling beside her delicately beautiful mother, a feeling reinforced long ago
by a man who left soul-deep scars. Now she has good friends, a solid job and the itch to
start a family - yet she can't move toward the future while she's haunted by
painful memories. Clay finds an unexpected ally, and unexpected temptation, in tomboyish
Charlie, the only person who sees beyond his dazzling good looks to the real man
beneath. But when Charlie comes to him with an indecent proposal, will they be able to
overcome their pasts and find a love that lasts beyond one incredible
summer?
