Rhett Sterling is the oldest son, the protector, the stone-faced wall of the family. While his siblings play guitar or argue in courtrooms, Rhett carries a badge as a Wyoming Livestock Agent. He deals in facts, silence, and swift justice. He has no patience for tourists, complications, or the bubbly new veterinarian who drives a bright yellow Jeep and treats cows like golden retrievers.
Dr. Maya Lin left the chaos of the city for the peace of the mountains, but she's finding the locals—specifically the giant, brooding Sheriff-type Rhett Sterling—harder to crack than a calculus exam. But her attempt to embrace country life goes wrong when she takes a shortcut through Sterling land and witnesses a midnight deal between cattle thieves and a shadow operative for the rival developer.
Now, Maya is a loose end that needs to be cut. When her clinic is torch-lit, Rhett moves her into his isolated cabin to keep her alive. Trapped with the grumpiest man in Wyoming, Maya discovers that Rhett's icy exterior hides a fierce, protective fire. And as the bullets fly, Rhett realizes that for the first time in his life, he has something to lose that matters more than the land.
