A man resigned to a lonely future and a woman fighting to overcome her past.
Painfully shy, Harper Lynn is desperate to start a new life on Crossroads Ranch — even if her housekeeping skills aren't quite up to her new boss's standards. Ames Parker, the gruff ranchhand and her new co-worker, is willing to show her the ropes and help her battle her occasional PTSD — for the sake of the ranch, of course. But Harper soon learns Ames has his own past hurts and is unable — or unwilling — to let down his well-fortified walls. Because he knows that once the former librarian sees his true self she'll run for the hills, breaking his heart in the process. Still, maybe a belief in possibilities can lead to a future neither expect...
