Charming rodeo rider Ted Sullivan, the golden guy of the small town, has a broken leg, and he needs help.
He has to stay at home, and he's going mad thinking about the competitions he's missing. He needs a maid/nurse/cook to help his recovery and make his life easier.
Enter Dakota, a 5.2 feet woman: unemployed, with a broken heart and the hope of finding a missing grandmother she didn't know she had until two weeks ago.
She is in town to find her lost relative and start a new life.
Then she meets Ted. He offers her a job, and her world shivers. That man... That stubborn cowboy drives her crazy, but she cannot stop thinking of him.
Ted didn't expect to meet such a lovely woman. She makes him want things he shouldn't.
He isn't looking for a relationship, but when she smiles at him, it's difficult to remember why he should keep his distance.
