He left her once. Now, he'll risk everything to stay.

Rhett Hawkins left Wyoming at eighteen, knowing his dreams were bigger than Falcon Ridge Ranch. But when his father gets injured, he returns to help out the family. He hopes to avoid Cheyenne, the girl whose heart he left in tatters—but his family failed to mention that she's their newest employee.

Cheyenne Snow once dreamed of running away with the cowboy she loved. But when he left her behind, she picked up the pieces of her broken heart and built a life for herself as a trail guide. The last thing she needs is Rhett complicating her new job and stirring up feelings she'd convinced herself were long dead.

Cheyenne's not the only one unhappy with Rhett's return. Someone's desperate to make him leave Wyoming once and for all ... even if it's in a body bag. Rhett may want to fight for a second chance, but first he'll have to fight for his life.
