A widower for seven long years, rancher Jack West believes that love and romance are a thing of the past, nothing more than cherished memories. He devotes himself to his grown son and his
family, the horses they raise, and the land that has been theirs for three generations. He doesn’t know that life has a surprise in store for him in the form of Janet Killeen, the lovely FBI
agent he threw off his land last winter.
The bullet that left Janet Killeen seriously wounded also tore a hole through her life. All she wants is a little peace and quiet in the mountains, a chance to feel like herself again. That
chance comes to an abrupt end when she goes off the road in a snowstorm and winds up stranded alone in a ditch. The last person on earth she wants to see is that arrogant jerk Jack West, no
matter how handsome he is. But from the moment Jack finds her and offers her his hand, she realizes that there’s far more to this gruff cowboy than she had imagined.
