Jackson's Girls Ken Casper

Leanna Cargill is a Damnyankee, but she's also as hardheaded as a Steel Magnolia. After her recent divorce, she's determined to succeed at her new job as an insurance investigator uncover the firebomber of millions of pounds of illegal raw sugar. After all, she has a little girl to protect and provide for. Jackson Fontaine is a Southern gentleman, a sugar plantation owner, a wheeler-dealer, as well as the single dad of a little girl. His parents were recently killed in a private plane crash, his sugar mill blown up, and he's on the brink of bankruptcy. Then there's his eccentric aunt who is convinced the man who jilted her three decades ago is responsible for it all. The girls get along fine. Their parents want to, but for a few doubts and obstacles, like the sudden and unwelcome appearance of Leanna's ex-husband. The result is a decidedly un-civil war.
