Impetuous and adventurous, Micki Vaughn is only in Seattle for four more months before she moves on to another town and another job.

Adam, carefree and debonair, doesn't believe in forming long-term attachments. But a brief, passionate affair with intriguing and elusive Micki is too tempting to resist.

By Micki's reckoning the timing is ideal. They'd have a few weeks getting to know each other, a few weeks of passion, a few weeks getting bored. He'd lose interest and they could part with no tears shed. It was going to be the perfect affair for both of them.

Until the past Micki is running from catches up to her and Adam learns she's lying. Micki knows she can't face the truth. Now she only hopes she can keep Adam at bay until it's time to disappear again.
