Megan Davis, a small-town hairdresser, takes pride in always having a good-looking salon, even when it's closed.

The black marble floor and the spotlights above it reminds her of walking at the beach at night, watching the stars twinkle above her.

She looks forward to meeting her new cop friend, Officer Zachary Jones, in a few minutes.

If only she hadn't lost her favorite pair of scissors...

And if only Zac hadn't found a pair of scissors on the beach...solidly planted in the chest of a dead body.

Amber Thorne is no Southern Belle. She’s sassy, curvy and clumsy.

When her father gives her an ultimatum — get a job or marry someone — she really only has one option:

To find work in one of the many saloons on the main street in the little Texan village.

Once again, her clumsiness gets her in trouble, and she finds herself forced to reluctantly agree to model half-nude for the good-looking and talented young artist, Joe Knight.

Soon she’s facing a danger much higher than losing her heart: Joe risks execution for a crime he didn’t commit.
