When Margaret "Ret" Butler's father gave her the Gay Banana Hot Springs Resort and Spa, the last thing she expected Daddy to do was try to run her out of business. But Daddy has his reasons, and Ret's mother is busy.
There's no doubt in anyone's mind that the wealthy Butler family is dysfunctionaland they like it that way! When an old flame of Ret's checks into the Gay Banana, the banana palms are flowering, the champagne is flowing and the sparks are flying. Oh and the mortgage is overdue, it's 120 degrees in the shade and the bank, which Daddy owns, is making those most unpleasant "foreclosure" sounds.
Ret's mother, though, has other ideas because Ret's father has a big, fat secret. Ret is up against a hard place and Wilhelmina White, the returning flame. Will Ret save the Gay Banana? Will she save her sanity? Will she get the girl? Not if Daddy can help it! Will Daddy win this battle? Not if Mother can help it!
