Living in Door County, Wisconsin, provided a serene and lush environment in which to grow up. For Dannie Sayles, her family and their Victorian inn, in the village of Ephraim, occupied the center of her life. She would be content if nothing ever changed, but in the summer of her seventeenth year everything would. Jeffas roommate, Tony, disrupted her routine with one look from his intense dark eyes. Tony Delaine had been noticing Jeffas little sister for quite some time, but the change one year could bring caught him unprepared! Although her infectious laugh and quiet spirit intrigued him, he had no right, as a college senior, to take advantage of her youth and inexperience for one soft summer. Jeffas friendship and the respect of the Sayles family had become too dear to lose, but so was the love of the younger girl.
