At twenty-one, I already feel like I've failed at everything.
After losing my job and being given an ultimatum by my mother, I'm sent from the city to my stepfather's brother's ranch in Montana, a place I never asked for and a life I don't understand.
Pike Callahan is everything I shouldn't be noticing. Older, rugged, stubborn, and far too kind for a man who claims he prefers being alone. He teaches me to ride, feeds me breakfast before sunrise, and slowly makes a place that once felt like punishment feel like home.
But Pike is also my stepfather's brother.
The closer we become, the harder it is to ignore what neither of us is supposed to feel.
