Nothing exciting ever happens in Palmer. Except that one time the biker gang came to town, and they turned out to be a bunch of middle aged doctors and lawyers reliving their glory days. But Aunt Lorinda insists the man they saw beside the interstate is an escaped convict. It doesn’t help that someone really did escape from the penitentiary up the road.

When a handsome stranger walks into town hours later, Sheriff Callen Steiner has a choice: believe the old woman who owns the diner, or believe the well-dressed stranger whose luxury car was stolen.

Hayley Beasley can’t stand the way the newcomer, Brice, mocks their small town, so she challenges him to give Palmer a chance and let her show him around. Both Aunt Lorinda and Callen have a problem with all the time Hayley is spending with Brice — Aunt Lorinda because she’s sure he’s the escaped convict, and Callen because he’d rather be the one getting all Hayley’s attention.

Who will Hayley choose: Brice, the rich, handsome newcomer, or Callen, the man she’s known her whole life? Will Callen catch the convict and prove to Aunt Lorinda once and for all that Brice isn’t the escaped inmate?

Or is he…?
