Betrayed by the man she thought she'd marry, Lana Smith flees her hometown with a broken heart and a desperate need for a new beginning. She finds refuge at the quiet ranch of her childhood friend, who is struggling to hold things—and her two kids''together after her husband's sudden death. What she never expected was the pull she’d feel living under the same roof as her friend’s brother, the one person who’s always gotten under her skin.

Nick Cooper has always been fiercely protective of his family, especially his younger sister and her children. As a man hardened by responsibility, he was always used to carrying burdens alone—until the unexpected arrival of his childhood rival shakes his world. Despite years of resentment, Nick begins to wonder if the woman who once irritated him most... might be the one he can’t live without.

When troubling questions arise about the tragedy that shattered the ranch, Lana and Nick find themselves drawn together in ways neither of them planned. As threats close in, they must face the hardest question of all—what if the love they never wanted... is the one they were meant to find?
