Supreme Battle Championship fighter Cannon Colter returns to the
States following a victory in Japan for some needed R&R after the tough
brawl. However, hometown attorney Cannon
asks him to come to Warfield, Ohio to discuss the property and funds that he
inherited from the recently deceased Tipton Sweeney. Stunned Cannon cannot understand why any
inheritance is going to him; as all should have went to the late pawn shop
owner’s granddaughter Yvette; the one female he desired but avoided as she was
too young for him when he left to join the SBC.
From the grave Tipton needs Cannon to take care of his beloved Yvette;
giving him joint ownership of half the estate to do so.
Unsure what type of greeting he will receive from Yvette who ran
away to California after his “rejection” and the trouble they and her
grandfather faced three years, Cannon attempts to comfort Yvette, but she
rejects his condolences. Distrusting him
for two reasons now, Yvette tries to hide her feelings of love by keeping her
distance from Cannon; while he hopes to earn her trust as he believes he has
her love and to honor Tipton’s belief in him by keeping the woman they both
cherish safe.
After the wonderful Love Undercover quartet, Lori Foster returns
to her SBC world (see My Man Michael, Hard to Handle Causing Havoc and Simon Says) with round one of the Ultimate
contemporary romance. The leisurely-paced
second chance at love subplot takes a somewhat typical track though the fully
developed leads and the townsfolk like Cannon, and the suspense make for a fine
Buckeye drama.
