The hero in this books is Scotty Hammond and the heroine is Augusta Miller, known as Gus. She is the music teacher at the local school and Scotty is the new principle. Sparks fly between them when Gus is postive she wants nothing to do with the handsome, talk of the town Scotty Hammond. Scotty on the other hand, is just as determined to conquer her. True to Mary Kay form, she opens the book with a comedic scene of Gus picking up the garbage from Scotty's dog, Bertrum T. Goodfellow, known as Bert, and throwing it back into Scotty's yard while talking aloud to herself about what she'd like to do to him, and his dog, not realizing Scotty is there the whole time listening, and had in fact, thrown the garbarge over the fence into her yard, himself. The sparks fly from there. I have read all of Mary Kay's books, and I found this one to be more passionate, and less comedic than her other books. She does have several scenes, where we view the going ons between Scotty and Gus thru the eyes of Bert, which were good for a laugh.
