Knox es barbero y le gusta vivir su vida tal y como se toma el café: solo. Es un hombre que no soporta el drama y no quiere complicaciones con las mujeres. Naomi, por su parte, acaba de huir del altar y se dirige, en busca de su hermana, a un pueblecito de Virginia donde las disputas se resuelven a la antigua usanza: con puñetazos y cerveza, en ese orden. Es una lástima que la hermana de Naomi la deje tirada y a cargo de su hijo de once años, un sobrino cuya existencia Naomi ignoraba. Atrapada en este pueblo sin coche, sin trabajo y sin casa, Naomi pide ayuda a Knox, que le ofrece un plan para que su vida vuelva a flote. Así, piensa Knox, Naomi lo dejará en paz. Ese era el plan, hasta que los problemas se convierten en un peligro real.
HE'S ABSOLUTELY NOT FALLING FOR THE GOOD GIRL ... Bearded, bad-boy barber Knox prefers to live his life the way he takes his coffee: Alone. Unless you count his basset hound, Waylon. Knox doesn't tolerate drama, even when it comes in the form of a stranded runaway bride. Naomi wasn't just running away from her wedding. She was riding to the rescue of her estranged twin to Knockemout, Virginia, a rough-around-the-edges town where disputes are settled the old-fashioned way... with fists and beer. Usually in that order. Too bad for Naomi her evil twin hasn't changed at all. After helping herself to Naomi's car and cash, Tina leaves her with something unexpected. The niece Naomi didn't know she had. Now she's stuck in town with no car, no job, no plan, and no home with an 11-year-old going on thirty to take care of. There's a reason Knox doesn't do complications or high-maintenance women, especially not the romantic ones. But since Naomi's life imploded right in front of him, the least he can do is help her out of her jam. And just as soon as she stops getting into new trouble he can leave her alone and get back to his peaceful, solitary life. At least, that's the plan until the trouble turns to real danger.
