Golden Worth is a proud southerner. But when some "good" Georgia boys threaten to lynch him, he runs north to Washington DC to make music and a new life for himself. He doesn't count on falling for the untouchable Leonie Harper, an aristocratic beauty with a mind for sin. He knows better than to want her, but the Radcliffe-bound girl who's supposed to be a blushing débutante is anything but. She captivates him, tempting him to want things he once thought were out of reach. All too easily, Golden falls into Leonie's scented embrace, even though he suspects she's only playing with him until something richer comes along. Can this country boy convince a big city girl to take a chance on real love, or will she leave him swinging in the wind?
