If any American fictional character of the 20th century seems likely to be immortal, it is Lorelei Lee of Little Rock, Arkansas, the not-so-dumb blonde who knew that diamonds are a girl's best friend. Outrageous, charming, and unforgettable, she's been portrayed on stage and screen by Carol Channing and Marilyn Monroe, and has become the archetype of the footloose, good-hearted gold digger, with an insatiable appetite for orchids, champagne, and precious stones.

With her reputation in ruins, Lacy Johnston returns to her hometown of Deep Fork, Oklahoma, with hopes of starting over after a bitter divorce. But her parents deny her the comfort she's seeking, and they aren't the only ones her senator ex-husband has fooled. Mayor Clint Sutherland can hardly believe Lacy, his childhood friend, has returned. But even as rumors of her infidelity spread through the small town, he can't deny the attraction that flares between them.
