An emotional and captivating love story filled with gritty cowboys, strong-willed women, and a whole lot of heart in the Wild West.

Laurie Spencer should not feel relieved after burying her husband, but she does. But in order to truly gain her independence from the man who controlled her, Laurie must make an offer to a sexy rancher that she hopes he can''t refuse.

When unconsciously sensual Laurie offers a partnership, his luck may be changing…but when she throws herself in as part of the deal, Jared''s not sure he''ll be able to respect the terms of their agreement and keep his eyes—and his hands—to himself.
There''s something about Laurie that awakens every protective instinct Jared has…and when all hell breaks loose, there''s nothing and no one who''ll be able to keep this cowboy from her side.
