AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Dave reckons he's quite the ladies man. With Barry White on the stereo and a bottle of tequila on the shelf, he knows how to create a mood. But Kate, the hairdresser he meets one night in his karaoke bar and brings back to his place, is a hard case. She's deep, she's defensive, she's troubled. Sure, Dave can break through, but can he deal with what is on the other side?'
