Veterinary student Stevie Marks is in desperate need of funds if she's going to graduate while caring for herself and her addict mother. When a chance encounter leads her to sign up for a sugar-baby website, she soon meets an unlikely and reluctant former town bad boy Eric Vaughn. He's a rude control freak who's locked her legally into a contract and physically into his gilded manor. But somewhere past the fury they bring out of each other, something more lies beneath, and a connection of intimate proportion blooms.

All is not as it seems as more questions, warnings, and nefarious intentions come to light. Eric is hiding something, and the entire town, along with her mother, is warning her to stay away. Stevie is soon wrapped in a dark world of stalkers, lies, and a society of street racing that she never knew existed. Is age really just a number, and is love the only motivation at play?

Maybe too much sugar really is a bad thing.
