From USA Today best-selling author Roxanne Rustand comes another heartwarming, character-driven, small-town romance in her popular Northern Pines series. This is a clean, faith-friendly romance with a light touch of suspense.
Ex-rodeo cowboy Connor Rafferty is a desperate father, stranded with a dead truck and his last fifty dollars. He must reach Detroit before his ex-wife and her abusive boyfriend vanish again with his son. Five years in prison for her lies cost him everything. Now, time is running out.

Keeley is barely holding her antique shop together after her employee quits on the eve of tourist season. She needs safe help—not a scarred stranger with secrets…and eyes she can’t ignore.

Connor asks for a few days’ work. No charity. Just a chance.

Keeley knows better than to trust him—but with customers lined up outside her door, she tentatively says yes.

If he’s telling the truth, his child is in danger.
If he’s lying…she’s invited trouble—and heartbreak—inside.

But 911 is already on her phone's Speed Dial. And this time, she won't hesitate to use it.
