| Plot Summary of Making Mischief |
"Abby, Rachel, Lindsay and Fleur are cousins. When Abby was 16 she saw Guy, a close friend of Rachel and Lindsay, in a suggestive situation with Cara, dubbed by Abby as the topless piranha. Fifteen years later, Fleur is dating Guy. But when Cara shows up and starts hinting that Guy still wants her, Fleur enlists the aid of Abby to keep an eye on Guy and keep Cara away. Trouble is, Abby realizes she fancies Guy also.
At Abby's brother's wedding, things get more complicated when Abby learns that her father used to date Kay, Fleur's mother. Kay still hates Abby's mother for stealing him away. Abby thinks that Kay suspects that Abby is trying to steal Guy from Fleur. Abby feels guilty because she senses a chemistry between her and Guy. Abby cannot seem to avoid Guy because her spoiled, mischievious 4 year old brother, Robbie, has taken a shine to Guy and keeps inviting him to join in their activities.
Things get worse when Fleur and Guy break up because of Fleur's mistrust of Guy. Abby tries to be friends, but when Rachel gets married in Barbados, Guy shows up also. Abby finds herself constantly in the company of Guy with only Robbie as a distraction. On a tropical island with only pleasure in mind, Abby is not sure she can continue to resist Guy."
