Abandoned as a baby, Elaine Dawson has long dreamed of a better life away from the work houses of New York City - and Black Rock, Montana, holds the key.

...or so she thinks.

But, when everything she'd set her heart on turns to dust, Elaine has two choices – return penniless to New York, or forge a new life for herself in Black Rock.

Determined to finally have a ranch of his own, John Garrett is driven by ghosts from his past. Hard working, he has no time for distractions – especially when they come in the shape of a feisty widow from back east.

With their futures at stake, each will do anything to protect what is theirs – except risk their hearts once again.

Neither was looking for a second chance, but will love give them a choice?
