Charleigh Simms is shocked to hear she's inherited her late husband's family ranch. More shocking are the strings attached to it—spend a year learning the ropes from the sexy cowboy who broke her heart six years ago. But to secure her son's future, there's nothing she won't do. Even risk having her heart broken again. For six years, Josh has worked hard to get over Charleigh's betrayal. Now she's back in town and needs him to help her and her son hold on to the ranch they've inherited. In exchange, he gets a chunk of change and a valuable piece of land. But every interaction with Charleigh and the boy has him hoping for more—to be a permanent part of their lives. All he has to do is find a way to forgive her. Love between them grows stronger every day, but when the secrets come out, even love might not be enough to earn a cowboy's forgiveness.
