It was supposed to be just a vacation fling...

43-year-old Beth Dykeman's life is spiraling—her 20-year marriage is over as is her career in Nashville's Chamber of Commerce. Now back home in River's Edge, Indiana, she's grieving the end of her dream to have a family. Hoping to restart her life, she books a relaxing long weekend at a spa in beautiful Montana. But Beth arrives only to discover she accidentally booked a stay at a working dude ranch in the middle of Marietta's 87th Copper Mountain Rodeo celebration weekend.

When he's not competing, 36-year-old bronc rider Del Foster works at the Aspen Springs Ranch. He's ready to hang up his spurs. This rodeo will be his last competition before he finally settles down and buys his own small spread to train cutting horses.

Their instant chemistry shocks them both, and on her last night, Beth indulges the attraction, knowing she'll never see Del again. But fate has a way of changing plans and challenging assumptions. Can Beth and Del both have what they never knew they always wanted?
