Jessica Fischer wants nothing more than to build her law practice in small-town Ashton, Georgia. She's well on her way when the local town hero, football coach Frank 'Tripp' Wishingham III, hires her to represent him in a paternity suit. Coach is everything Jessica despises - arrogant, sexist, entitled - but it's her job to make him look good in public. This is made doubly difficult when her burgeoning relationship with a local reporter gets in the way of telling the truth. Are things as black and white as Jessica thinks? And can she find a way to succeed without compromising her own personal values - or her personal life?
