Larry Wycoff, a handsome and dedicated young lawyer from Alabama, holds only a minor post at his prestigious Los Angeles firm. Then his boss, Conrad Aikman, offers him an unusual assignment. Tyra Karlson, a gorgeous Swedish actress with prospects of a lucrative film career, needs to remain in the United States after her contract expires. One way for her to sidestep citizenship requirements is to marry an American and live with him for a year. Larry is deeply smitten as soon as he meets Tyra, so he readily agrees to the job. But he’ll have problems, since expressing his feelings won’t be part of the arrangement. (DB02)
