'You won't find a mule more stubborn than me, especially when it comes to women.'–Rancher Steven Fortune With his prosperous ranch and independence, Steven considers himself a lucky man. He's smart enough to stay far away from love–he's learned it only brings heartache. But then he meets events planner Amy Burke–Sinclair, who has beauty and the brains to match. She is just as cautious as he is, but nevertheless seduces him into a night of passion that leaves him stunned and ready to admit that perhaps he doesn't have all the answers!

When they have to work together on a function honouring patriarch Ryan Fortune, Steven finds himself falling even harder. He soon changes his mind about the benefits of love and commitment but will Amy change hers?
