Sarah Grant appeared at on my ranch like a storm blowing in from nowhere.
She’s trespassing, but it’s her blue eyes, reflecting the sky above, that catch me harder than any apprehension.

Fourteen years younger, a train wreck of vulnerability and courage.
She’s settled here on my land with nothing but a backpack and a broken heart.

I’m John Hearst, the reluctant cowboy, my hearts been broken, and I can't cope with the pain.
I’m better with horses than people, and love’s a pasture I’ve fenced off since my Lauren left this world.

But here Sarah stands, sunshine cutting through my rugged resolve.

Pressure’s mounting, forcing us into a fake engagement sweeter and more tangled than a prairie rose.
Sarah’s brightening my worn-out soul, messing with my heart like a thunderstorm in the desert, unexpected and fierce.

I guard my heart like cattle, but she might have the key to the gate.
This could be the ride of a lifetime.
