Dawn has found her ideal vocation as a diesel mechanic at Dave's Garage in Kauri Bay. There's a shortage of eligible men in the little seaside town – which is so frustrating for her and her sister Skye – but she has no intention of leaving her town for love.

When Matt, a home town boy who made it big in Canada comes back to see how the town is faring, sparks fly, but they're the wrong sort. His opening comment 'well, hellooo legs' is absolutely unacceptable, and when he asks Dawn out to dinner she tells him bluntly that she has no intention of having her heart broken when he moves on to his next big adventure.

Still, Matt perseveres. At first it's just to get her to accept a dinner date as an apology, but then he wants more. She won't consider him, though, if he's going to leave Kauri Bay, which is a reasonable move on her part. So what can he do about the situation?
