Stacey Trent has just about given up on love when a whirlwind romance with the charming Nick Cable persuades her otherwise. Believing they are to be married she turns her back on home, career and friends to be with him, only to discover the promise of a future together is nothing but a tissue of lies.
Stacey finds herself left to the mercy of his older brother, Lex, who is less than sympathetic having had his fill of clearing up the trail of 'weeping females' Nick regularly leaves behind. Circumstances force them together and there can be no denying the attraction growing between them.
But will Stacey ever be able to convince Lex he is more than second best?
