Ain't she sweet?

Sugar Beth Carey is back in town, the small southern town she despised and never intended to return to; however she's also on a mission, to find a painting willed to her worth millions. To gain access to the estate of her deceased father, she must 'make nice' with it's current occupant, Colin Byrne. No easy task, because as her teacher 15 years earlier, she ruined his reputation by falsely accusing him of molesting her and, now, he is a rich, famous author relishing his opportunity for revenge. But, what neither of them foresee is the begrudging respect they will develop for one another's wit and intelligence as they struggle to maintain their emotional distance and prevent themselves from falling in love. Complicated, not only by their pasts, but by others who were hurt in the past as well. (Very witty dialogue between characters).
