When Ruby Runyon's hot date turns out to be mob-connected and married, her only chance of escape is to crash a swanky party aboard a luxury yacht. The next thing she knows, she's on her way to the Bahamas with nothing but the little black dress on her back. It doesn't help that she's going to be turned away from every port without proof of citizenship, which just didn't quite fit into her electron-sized cocktail bag.

Enter Cary Grant wannabe Keaton Hamilton Danning the III, former chief adviser to kings, present babysitter of a recalcitrant prince. His job is fixing problems, and Ruby's shouldn't be too big a challenge. But it isn't long before she's turning his well-ordered existence on its head. She's sexy and sassy and just right for passion. But can they possibly jibe the two very different worlds they come from? How can they find their way to each other when they can't even get Ruby home?
