Years ago, Charlene "Charly" Phelps had been talked into leaving her hometown and her baby behind to give her son the life she never could. Then, on a visit home, she saw a picture of a boy who seemed impossibly familiar and knew she had to get out of town. Again. How she ended up in jail was another matter the question was, how could she get out? She had only one phone call, which Troy Starr happened to answer. He knew that Charly had a reputation for trouble, but troubleshooting was Troy's business. And though she acted as if he was the last man on earth she wanted to be near, Troy figured it was only a matter of time before this soft-at-the-core lady fell for him and time was something Troy had plenty of.
