When Sam visits the cafe where Jennifer works, she is less than impressed with his brusque manner. However, as a series of events throws them together, their growing attraction is undeniable. Can the two of them overcome the considerable difficulties that stand in the way of their happiness together, or will they be forced to go their separate ways?"--Cover p.4.
