What happens when a former show girl moves to a small town and asks the preacher's son to dig up her husband's grave?
Former Vegas showgirl Mary Hightower swore off dangerous men after the death of her mafia husband. To protect her and her mom, they move to a small southern town far from her past life to start a new bad-boy-free existence. Then she meets Luke.
Ex-convict Luke Blackwood works hard to be the man his mom could have been proud of, yet his bruised knuckles prove he's a failure. Though his dad still believes in him, it may take the love of a long-legged, soft-spoken woman to repair what is broken inside.
When her husband's former boss demands the evidence she has hidden, she turns to the only man she can trust. But is the reformed bad boy willing to do whatever's needed to save the woman he wants for his own?
