Widowed innkeeper Daisy Ross has spent the past year keeping alive the inn she once dreamed of building with her husband. But when she rescues an injured stranger near the river, his kindness threatens to uncover both her guarded heart and the outlaw past she has tried to bury.

Will, a Northern Paiute tracker, has spent most of his life caught between worlds. Neither fully accepted by his father's people nor entirely at home among the settlers, he's learned to rely only on himself. When an injury leaves him in a settler's care, her warmth and compassion begin to break through his defenses. Could she be more than just a temporary refuge for his lonely heart?

The arrival of a man from Daisy's past seeking revenge threatens the future she and Will have begun to imagine together, forcing them to decide whether to trust each other with the truth. Will the love growing between them be enough to overcome the past?
