She comes to him to sell a family heirloom. He ignores the warning signs she might be trouble.

Sophia Lopez is an exotic beauty who must steal to survive after the death of her parents. Though she feels guilt that she's become a criminal, she rationalizes that she has no other choice. Her latest heist forces her to run to Mexico where she hopes she'll be safe with family. Stopping in Briarwood, Nevada to sell what she can to finish her journey, she meets a young banker who will give her just what she needs.

Stanley Wilder Winthorpe is a timid man who comes alive when he meets the vibrant and lovely Sophia Lopez. Little does he know she'll cost him his job and almost all his dignity. Just being seen doing business with an unknown woman calls his character into question. His quest to make something of himself has come to a sudden stop.

In spite of the scandal and rumors, Stanley can think of little else than Sophia. He knows such a beautiful woman would never give him a second glance, but he still dreams of courting her. Oddly enough, Sophia is drawn to Stanley's quiet strength in the face of adversity. She surprises herself by admitting he's one of the handsomest men she's ever met. Agreeing to stay in town with Stanley just a bit longer may just be the best decision she ever makes.

Will Sophia be woman enough to trust Stanley with the truth? Will Stanley gather enough courage to be the man Sophia desperately needs?
