Olivia Diaz returns home without any notice, expecting to step into managing her family's cabin resort. She's surprised to find that her parents have gone away for a much-needed vacation and left Robert McGuire in charge--as manager! Rob's been hired to update the cabin resort and find ways to increase bookings. Up to now, most of his dealings have been with another daughter of the family. He finds a bit of resistance to some changes he's considering--at the same time, he is dealing with vandals who deface cabins on the property.

As with most of these formulaic romances, had the two lovebirds decided to communicate honestly with each other earlier, they'd have saved themselves much misunderstanding and heartache. Olivia knew Rob in college and looked up to him then as well as hoped he would notice her. Since then, Rob feels he's made some bad choices in his life and fallen from the pedestal on which she seems to have placed him--rather than tell her the truth, he tries to hide it. When Olivia later does something that she is doing to help him, he takes it that she didn't trust his word and needed to hear the truth from the other person. ( )
