A handwritten note has Colt Waycroft replacing Armani suits with denim for a return to the ranch where he grew-up. Powerful family bonds survived his fifteen year absence, but foul reactions from a certain ranch-hand are unexplainable. A tomboy from his past, now a green-eyed temptress, becomes a complicated distraction though. Her continuous attempts at avoiding him is mystifying, and the silent panic in her eyes rattles his judgement.
Years ago, Kallie Forrester thought Colt had taken her schoolgirl fantasies with him when he left for college. One look at him now and her knees weaken with an aged case of swooning teen syndrome. Past friends or not, she can't face him. Not now. Not after what had happened.
His persistence crumbles parameters for them both and passion flares, but is that enough? As Colt unknowingly steps into danger Kallie's bravery places her in harm's way. Lives are changed.
