In high school, Dakota Jayne was my everything. My life. My soul. The air I breathed. She was my light. One day we were planning the rest of our life. The next I was picking up the shattered pieces of my broken heart. She abandoned me without looking back. Had she glanced in the rearview, she would’ve seen me chasing after her through the dust cloud she stirred up when she hightailed it out of town. Now, eleven years later, she’s back and creating havoc between my heart and mind.

What was supposed to be one of the happiest days of my life turned into my worst nightmare. After losing my wife, my daughter is all I live for. Well, her and the ranch. Between work and my family, I keep myself busy. I don’t have time for relationships, nor do I even want one. It’s the way I like it. The way I need it. If I don’t open up, I won’t love.

Trusting others means taking risks, and that’s hard for me to do. I mean, when your mother abandons you as a child, you’re left with scars. I’m not reckless. I’m not wild. I play by the rules. It’s safer that way. Or so I thought.... Catching my boyfriend cheating on me confirmed every reason I’d kept my heart guarded. But being kissed by a sexy-as-sin stranger in front of him proved how little I was in control. It was passionate, electric, and it rocked me to my core. He stole my breath but replaced it with anger. I stormed away without so much as a name exchange.

When my grandmother asked me to run her bed-and-breakfast while she took a vacation, I should've said no. Now I'm stuck in this godforsaken town hours away from the pampered life I live in New York City. Gone are my days filled with luxury and glamour. I've been reduced to being domesticated. What can possibly go wrong? Decker Black, that's what. He walks into my life—more like breaks in—and immediately irritates the hell out of me. I can't stand him. He's moody, grumpy, and surly all rolled into one annoyed glare. Until one severe storm changes everything.
