Welcome to Katrina's Aftermath, a restaurant started after the disastrous hurricane, a symbol of the dedicated people of the region who rebuilt after others predicted it could not be done.

Blogger Claire Langois is impulsive, flighty, and prone to mischief, especially when she gets together with her cousin, Mary Elizabeth, and best friend, Jenny. While men are drawn to Claire's beauty and lively personality, she always manages to chase them off. After countless breakups and two failed engagements, she is ready to be the one in control of when - and if - she dates anyone else.

Jeremy Schnaydre meets Claire at his brother Everrett's wedding. For him, it's love at first sight. Now the reformed playboy just has to convince Claire he has staying power.
