Can a former football star and a still-nerdy gal find love on a Colorado ranch?
Becca Lawrence comes to her uncle's Black Rock Ranch with her life in turmoil, hoping that the peace of the mountains will help her figure out a Plan B. The last thing on her mind is running into her old high school crush, Nate. He'd been a star football player and she'd only tutored him in algebra, but now? Her heart is pounding again, and she can't concentrate on planning her future.
Nate Hastings is finally in charge of a construction job, but frustrating delays make it impossible to stay on schedule, let alone take a long-awaited trail ride. At least he doesn't have to bother with a social life at the ranch. Until Becca Lawrence shows up. She'd been the ultimate nerdy girl in high school, but now she's charming, beautiful, and still smart. And her smile keeps distracting him from what he thought was important.
But it can only be a summer romance. Nate will move on to the next job site, and Becca will likely head for a city career. Unless, of course, God has something better in store for them.
Be prepared for a big guy in a tiny house, his overgrown slobbery dog, and a bear on the loose when you escape to Black Rock with Nate and Becca!
