Plot Summary of Home In His Arms
"Maggie Tynedale is a plump, pretty small-town girl who loves her lakeside village and runs a small motel there. When Andrew Hargrove breezes into town talking about development and golf courses, she refuses to sell her property to him, thinking that will be the end of it. She has met his kind before; in fact she married, then divorced, his kind before. But Andrew is stubborn, and no sexy small-town girl is going to keep him from getting what he wants. So he initiates a deal to lease Native land for his development. The war of words between him and Maggie ends in lusty lovemaking while skinny-dipping in the lake at night. But is it more than just sex? Can she learn to trust a big-city guy who may be out to get more than her body?"
D. Simpson, Resident Scholar
