Tragedy strikes without warning. Just like love. Nothing, not even the beauty of Montana' s big-sky country, can make up for the one reckless mistake Derrick made twelve years ago. And so he buries himself in raising his son, his only outlet the poignant country songs he writes and plays at the local bar. Until he meets Kara Tillman. Widowed at just twentynine and caring for her mother-in-law, Kara teaches him that grief doesn' t have to be all-consuming. That tragedy can be overcome and wounds healed. That life is about risk...and happiness is worth the stakes. Too bad Kara hasn' t learned that lesson herself. So maybe it' s time for the pupil to become the teacher. Or, in this case, the sexy country singer to show the young widow that love can strike the same person twice.
