When Clara Whitmore boards a train to the rough frontier, she brings more than trunks of dresses and family expectations she brings the weight of a vow she never wanted. Promised to a stranger, she arrives to find her new husband anything but welcoming. James McGraw, worn down by loss and hard land, never asked for a wife. He certainly didn’t want a refined woman from Boston stepping into his ranch and his world.
Yet a quick ceremony ties them together, and what starts as stubborn clashes soon stirs something harder to ignore. Clara won’t fade into the background, challenging James at every turn, while James resists the pull of her fire even as it pulls him closer. Anger sparks, laughter slips in when neither expects it, and the storms outside are nothing compared to the ones building inside their walls.
When rustlers and betrayal threaten the ranch, they have no choice but to stand side by side or lose everything. Desire burns hot under the frontier sun, but trust proves harder to build than fences or herds.
Can two people bound by duty find the strength to choose each other for real?
