Tough, street smart, master of odd jobs, Brook Jones, has always been unwanted and alone. At the age of thirty, she doesn't need hopeful half-sisters or a desperate father. What she does need is money. After growing up homeless with a mother who eventually left her, Brook learned to do anything in order to survive, but never quite fit in anywhere. Needing a place to stay, she rides out the summer with strangers she doesn't trust, planning to bail the second she is free to claim her money. She doesn't forgive or forget easily. The other two look like their mother's, but she's the spitting image of their father, yet she doesn't fit into his world either. Until she meets her polar opposite, a rich playboy tennis star born into money, who teaches her what it's like to be truly wanted and loved. But will she allow herself to accept that she doesn't have to be alone and embrace the gifts that are hers for the taking, including the father she needs more than any of them?
