After all, there are no surprises from a wolf in wolf's clothing. Kane knows his reputation with the ladies is greatly exaggerated. After his father's sudden death required Kane to take over the family business at the tender age of 22, he's been more concerned with keeping the company running than finding someone to settle down with.

At the same time, an arsonist is stalking Fielding Paper, threatening the entire family's livelihood and increasing the public scrutiny on Kane's every move.
