Namid's a city boy, born and bred, but he needs a change of pace. Tired of the political jockeying and demands of being a doctor in Chicago, he moves West to Hooper's Town. He's about to find out that "quaint small town" is really a euphemism for "completely weird." Porches that attack people, herds of cats, nookomis watching him like hawks, Namid accepts the small town as it is because of one important factor-a recluse of a cowboy he just happens to save from a fire. Now if only Namid could find a way to tell Dusty the whole town is gleefully gossiping about them dating.
