In New Jersey, Bart Matthews leaves his fianc e Cherry Harte at the altar. Not long afterward Cherry and her sister Liz win a multi-million dollar lottery. With her mom in jail for embezzling, and their con artist father vanished for over a decade, the siblings decide to relocate to Mystic Beach, Florida, with Cherry planning to reinvent her life.
In Mystic Beach, Cherry's Jag breaks down, but mechanic Luke Chance tells her to wait her turn or borrow his truck. As they become better acquainted, an attraction springs up between them. However, the former journalist refuses to have anything with the novella riche, as he has a lingering bad taste from a similar female. Besides, she wants to join the Women's League that is competing with him for conversion of property; the league wants to establish a horticultural center, while he and his side a youth center.
CHERRY ON TOP is an engaging contemporary romance starring two likable lead characters. Cherry is an eccentric female who wants to shed her family's scandalous past in order to become accepted by "polite society", even if she has to buy her way into the group. Luke refuses to take a chance on anyone rich, especially a lottery winner. Though the intrigue seems unnecessary and over the top, Kathleen Long provides a fun tale with zany eccentrics rounding out the fine starring couple.
