Cecilia Dunn had it all: a loving family, the legacy of the family ranch. She even moved away to the city but came back because her heart is always here. Until a horrible year when she almost lost it all.

Then she got a random text from a guy begging for help to find his girlfriend. This is how her and Jake Andrews met two years ago. Two years of this man in her life showing up when he felt he was safe to her ranch. In all her relationships she was never more thankful for a heart like a truck that never breaks down.

Will she be able to calm the running soul in this man? Will she be able to help him face his demons, or are they damned to hell being separated while their love won't fade? Will her heart handle watching this man she adores drive away and keep coming back?

But with the arrival of a familiar stranger arriving at Black Oak Ranch, things are set to be more complicated than she'd been counting on. Ryder Matthews fucked up and he knows it. 11 years ago, he left the love of his lie in some pre-college life freak out and when he returned 3 years later, she was gone. After spending the better part of 14 months travelling the world in hopes of finding some kind of meaning to life outside of the little town where every turn is a burning memory of Sadie, he returns with no hope. He's stuck to deal with his consequences. A week after his return home, Ryder heads to Jack Taylor's ranch to get his old farm hand job back. When he steps out of the car, a 9 year old girl greets him and when her mom comes to see what the fuss is all about, he's met with the last person he thought he'd ever see back in Alcombey. Let alone with a child. Ryder and Sadie have a lot of baggage to unpack if they have any hope of being able to tolerate working together. But when his heart is still beating for her and her heart is locked behind solid concrete walls, is that even possible?
