All Beth Gallatin has really wanted out of life is to settle down in
one town, with one man, and raise a family. But with her father’s
roaming ways, she’s always been denied that dream; instead, she found
solace in reading romantic books. With her father’s passing, she can,
for the first time, dare to claim the rugged Montana frontier as her
home.

Nick Lassiter has loved Beth since she first arrived in town,
but she’s always seemed to think of him more as a brother. Just when he
finally gets Beth to consider him, however, a challenger threatens the
affection growing between them. But neither Nick nor Beth is prepared
when they must face the consequences of Nick’s complicated past.
