The pristine old fashioned streets and genteel southern hospitality of the town's folks eventual-ly lull Lilly into believing, maybe, just maybe, she can settle in and make a safe and quiet life for herself. But when Legend's nationally famous high school football coach decides to make her his lady, Lilly is thrown into the spotlight as well, giving those seeking to find and destroy her, another chance to fulfill their contract.
