Amy Williams is a dyed-in-the-wool romantic. From childhood, her father taught her to see the mystery and danger in every-day events. All her adult life, however -including her present sedate secretarial job at a small, educational non-profit- has always been...well, uneventful. Still, she won't let that blind her to the every-day mysteries around her.
Michael Edwards is a facts-only local police beat cop who was raised on the poor side of town by a single mother. Mysteries need to be demystified and made safe. Danger needs to be disarmed, contained or neutralized. Its not just his job, its his whole upbringing.
So when mystery and danger finally threaten Amy's boring existence, and perhaps her very life, a man like Officer Edwards is just the ticket. If only he wasn't such a flat-footed, unimaginative jerk.
