Falling in love with a cowboy wasn't part of the deal...

Jackson Marshall feels stuck, but with only one local rodeo success fifteen years ago etched into his buckle, he's uncertain how to get out of his brother's shadow and make a name for himself in Deer Creek. What's more, the family needs him to make nice with city slicker Jill Henley to continue building their ranch's brand—a merger with trouble stamped all over it.

Jill Henley is eager to prove herself with this multimillion-dollar project for her boss's Steel Born company. She can handle the pressure, but the Marshall family's request to partner with playboy Jackson to get the contract? It's enough to set anyone's stilettos on a path to the nearest city.

Then a teenager arrives at the ranch and upends Jackson's life with his secret. As Jackson sacrifices his lifestyle to step up as a dad, Jill starts to see this small town—and her fiercely proud cowboy—in a different light. They might just find what they've been looking for all along—in each other's arms.
