Meet Halle. A young brilliant black woman with a passion for writing. When Halle first left school, she'd had aspirations of pursuing her longtime dream only to wound up Assistant to the editor in Chief at a local magazine. That's life for you ... A big sloppy ball of humour. It didn't help that her boss was the neighbourhood Scrooge either. One day, she finds a letter left her mailbox and though it wasn't addressed to her, it may just change her life forever. Meet Nate. A workaholic and the young C.E.O of Bane Industries. In his few years, Nate's been searching for love the likes of what his parents shared and had told him about so many times before but hasn't found it yet. Instead, he entertains relations with a socialite. He had everything anyone could want for, and yet he had nothing at all. While on a spur-of-the-moment vacation planned by his secretary, Nate writes a love-letter that may just bring him closer to what he's been looking for. They live two completely different lives ... but love transcends all bounds, doesn't it? At least, that's what the elderly say. What do you think? Can they work? Why don't you read to find out?

Reilly Jones works at Ruby's Inn. A prominent diner in Red Oak. She's young, naive and last but certainly not least, one of the only black waitresses working there. She tries to keep a low profile and to herself but little does she know she's on the radar of every guy in a five-mile radius of the Ruby's. However, she thinks herself an average girl, like any other. Only her mother died when she was little and her father spent most of his time at the local bar nursing more than one beer, and she has the mental scars that tell differently. That and she longs to be important ... a least to someone. Gerard Grant always gets the girl. He's a strikingly gorgeous cowboy, not afraid to speak his mind and as typical rich guys go ... he's arrogant. He takes pride in overseeing his family's ranch but when he's not working the ranch, he likes to have fun. Being oh so sure of himself, he gets in on a seemingly harmless bet with a few of his cowhands. The Bet: to get the most unbelievably beautiful and unattainable girl in town, Reilly Jones, to go out with them. Being who he is, he doesn't expect her to toss Iced Tea in his face or worse, reject him and it stings. However, little does the beauty know the games are only just beginning because as everyone knows in Red Oak, this Grant always gets what he wants. All Rights Reserved!!!
