Jessica Hayes has only ever wanted to prove she could be an asset to her father and his company. She’s so determined to get his approval, she agreed to marry Warner, the man her father is grooming to take over the family business. But Warner doesn’t want a business partner, and leaving Jessica behind in Cedar Ridge is just the beginning of what he’ll do to get what he wants.

Jared McKendrick has time for one thing: keeping his family’s ranch running and out of the hands of the aggressive developer who’s buying up property around Cedar Ridge. Unfortunately, when his mother spots a little blonde fish out of water, looking lost in impractical high heels, she offers Jessica the use of their phone and a place to stay. Warner is doing his damnedest to keep Jessica out of his way, but what really sends everything off the rails is the growing attraction between Jared and Jessica. Can she convince Jared to sell the ranch before he realizes who she really is? Can she do it without falling for him completely? Can Jared figure out a way to keep his ranch and convince her to stay? Set in the fictitious town of Cedar Ridge, Wyoming, if you enjoy sweet and spicy small-town tales starring pampered but spunky city girls and hunky cowboy heroes, you'll love Cedar Ridge.
