The Benedict brothers and cousins have a lot in common: They're handsome, powerful, and wealthy, and they take things like family, loyalty, and responsibility very, very seriously. Janna Kerr may not have all the Benedict family's advantages, but she definitely shares their feelings about family and responsibility. Though her long-ago lover, Matt Benedict, died without ever knowing about the child they'd made together, Janna is prepared to do whatever is necessary to get the desperately ill little girl the kidney transplant she needs. That's why, when Matt's twin brother, Clay, makes an unexpected visit to the isolated fishing cabin where artist Janna and her daughter Lainey have been staying, in hiding while waiting for the illegal transplant that is their last hope, Janna panics and makes Clay her prisoner. Clay's Benedict charm quickly captivates his jailer and delights her daughter. But, even as Janna's designs on her captive's body take on new dimensions, her newly forged family becomes deeply entwined in a web of deadly danger.
