Her last location shoot ended in disaster when a film crew destroyed property on an avocado grove. And Greer ended up with the blame. Now Greer has been given one more chance -- a shot at finding the perfect undiscovered beach town for a big budget movie. She zeros in on a sleepy Florida panhandle town. There's one motel, a marina, a long stretch of pristine beach and an old fishing pier with a community casino, which will be perfect for the film's climax when the bad guys blow it up in an all-out assault on the townspeople. Greer slips into town and is ecstatic to find the last unspoilt patch of the Florida gulf coast. She takes a room at the only motel in town, and starts working her charm. However, she finds a formidable obstacle in the town mayor, Eben Thinadeaux. Eben is a born-again environmentalist who's seen huge damage done to the town by a huge paper company. The bay has only recently been re-born, a fishing industry has sprung up, and Eben has no intention of letting anybody screw with his town again. The only problem is that he finds Greer way too attractive for his own good, and knows that her motivation is in direct conflict with his. Will true love find a foothold in this small beach town before it's too late and disaster strikes? 541 $d 20210101. 650 $a Motion pictures $x Production and direction $v Fiction. 650 $a Marine resources conservation $v Fiction. 650 $a Interpersonal attraction $v Fiction. 650 $a Motion picture locations $v Fiction. 651 $a Gulf Coast (Fla) $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Romance fiction. 700 $a Trocheck, Kathy Hogan, $d 1954- 941 $a 1 952 $l WPPB215 $d 20230124012339.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E7FB46969BB411EDB33124244DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
