Unforgettable
Owned by one family, Hope, Texas, is dying, thanks to the abject neglect of the current scion, Congressman Edward Hope. His son, Jackson, a geek in high school, now a successful Austin lawyer, is due to inherit the town. Riley Stone is a talented singer in Austin, tall and shapely. No one would ever guess that she was just a few steps shy of foster care when she was unceremoniously left with her bible-thumping grandmother. Seen as fast and loose in high school, Riley nevertheless moves back to Hope when her grandmother dies. Then, when Edward plans to tear down a historic dance hall, Riley enlists the aid of a reluctant Jackson to help her save it. Along the way, family secrets are unearthed that threaten to tear the Hope family apart, and Riley and Jackson, each burdened with emotional baggage, find their way to each other in Ortolon's sweet, sentimental, and sexy tale of overcoming one's past.
