Kate Stevens would probably marry Tom Sullivan. He was stable. Besides, passion and romance were too much to expect. But everything changed when Tom's brother, Nick, returned after a sever-year absence. Suddenly Kate knew what passion was...

Nick had to admit that women like Kate -- a shade too thin, far too independent, a bit kooky -- usually turned him off. Yet he felt drawn to hold her, kiss her, love her. Still she was his brother's girlfriend, and he and his brother already had a score to settle. This was no way to even the odds!
