When Jared Sotheby arrives in Peak, Virginia, to search for his identity — and his Filipino roots —he doesn't anticipate an instant connection with a stunning woman he meets on his first night in town.

Their subterfuge quickly grows complicated as Jared yearns for a connection — not only with his family, but also with the once-bitten Mathilda. But first he'll have to convince her to let a younger man into her heart...
