Samantha Monroe, a high-flying city executive with an aversion to dirt and disruption, is blindsided by her estranged grandfather's will: she's inherited his dilapidated ranch. Her plan? Sell it, fast, and get back to her structured urban life. But standing in her way is Jake Miller, the rugged, steadfast ranch foreman whose boots are as deeply rooted in the land as his conviction that Samantha is utterly unfit to save it. Jake, a man of few words and strong will, has poured his life into the Flying M, and he'll fight tooth and nail to protect its legacy from what he sees as a city slicker's fleeting whim. As Samantha confronts leaky roofs, obstinate livestock, and Jake's infuriatingly charming resistance, she finds herself unexpectedly drawn into the rhythm of ranch life and the undeniable sparks flying between her and the cowboy. Can she save the ranch without losing her heart?
