Lavinia has adored Hamish from the second she set eyes on him. Unfortunately, the surly Star Elite investigator is less than enthusiastic about returning her feelings. Having made his lack of interest in her abundantly clear to everyone, Lavinia knows it is time to leave. But a chance encounter with a ghost from her past throws her carefully made plans into chaos, and turns the Star Elite's base into a seething mass of problems.
Hamish is fed up with being teased about her by his colleagues. Desperate to put his feelings aside, he makes his lack of intentions clear to everyone, and expects to be left in peace! But when he learns that Lavinia is leaving, and has a suitor squiring her around the county, he has to investigate. His determination to find out everything about the stranger can't have anything to do with any hidden feelings for the persistent young woman he can't seem to ignore, can it?
When her lack of interest in him suddenly starts to become clear, Hamish is more than a little piqued and is determined to find out why she has suddenly changed her mind. Can he let her go? Can a future ever be theirs, or will the new arrival in their lives bring all their carefully made plans crashing to a halt? One thing is for definite, Hamish and Lavinia must reassess their lives. But after so much doubt and confusion, can either of them be brave enough to admit to their feelings? Or will a deceptive stranger tear them apart forever?
