Cody Matthews can't believe the recent changes in his daughter. Gone is daddy's little angel; in her place, the devil in blue jeans. As a last resort - since Cody's a man who believes he should be able to cope with family problems on his own - he turns for help to Joan Paxton.

But Joan has her work cut out for her. Cody is just as stubborn as his daughter - and just as good at keeping secrets. And unless Joan can uncover the truth, she won't be able to prevent the Matthews family from breaking apart.

It's a possibility Joan can't bear to consider. She knows Cody and his daughter belong together...and she wants to believe Cody's conviction - that she belongs with them, too.
