Can she put aside the old wounds he inflicted to help him save his son?
Cowboys are a different breed... They work hard, play hard and love harder. It's all about the ride until the right woman makes them fall.
Sheriff Brock Cooper's life is in shambles. His son is gravely ill with a mystery ailment, the medical bills are piling up, and he is working two jobs, on top of working his ranch, trying to make ends meet. Brock is holding on with both hands, but doesn't know how long his endurance, or his son, will last without help.
Melanie Fox swore she'd never return to her hometown whose only claim to fame was it was situated in the same Georgia county where the movie Deliverance was filmed. But when Dr. Fox hears from the town's new sheriff that her crazy mother's antics have put her in the hospital, she has to go.
The only comfort she has is knowing her return won't be in inch-thick glasses with extra fluff. This time, Melanie will return as a confident, competent physician, so she would be immune to the taunts of the bullies and busybodies in her hometown.
When Melanie meets the new sheriff, though, time disappears along with her confidence. She is once again that nerd-girl and he is the boy who crushed her sixteen-year-old heart. But Brock Cooper is no longer the happy-go-lucky jock she fell in love with. He's a tortured man, with a sick son. Can she put aside the old wounds he inflicted to help him save his son?
Cowboys are a different breed…
They work hard, play hard and love harder. It’s all about the ride until the right woman makes them fall.
Sheriff Brock Cooper’s life is in the toilet. His son is gravely ill with a mystery ailment, the medical bills are piling up, and he is working two jobs trying to make ends meet. This was a far cry from where he thought his life would end up after being a hometown football hero, then a pro player until he washed out. But it is what it is and he’s dealing with it, because he’s desperate to find help for his son.
Melanie Fox hated everything about her hometown whose only claim to fame was it was situated in the same Georgia county where the movie Deliverance was filmed. When she was delivered from that red clay hellhole and the bullies who harassed a nerdy, bookworm at eighteen, Melanie swore she’d never go back. But when she gets a call from the town’s new sheriff to tell her that her crazy mother’s antics have put her in the hospital, Melanie knows she has to go.
This time, however, she’s going back as Dr. Melanie Fox who no longer wears half-inch-thick glasses, carries around extra fluff or needs anyone’s approval. She can’t help but wonder though, what her secret first love who crushed her sixteen-year-old heart, would think of her now.
