Sunset Ranch, a foster home to many boys like Chet Grall had been and always would be the place he now calls home. Grown, he’s remained on the ranch as the top ranch hand to the McDermott brothers—his brothers here where his new life began. But after watching all three of them marry there’s a hollow spot inside him, a spot he’s trying to ignore.
April Mallory lives a life all to herself. A much-loved fiction writer—under a pen name, no one knows who she is or her real name. Her entire life has been lived in hiding and now, though there is no longer a need to hide, she has remained a person who keeps to herself. But now, she’s come to Dew Drop, Texas to meet Mabel, a reader whose letter to April—actually to her writing name has intrigued April. Not that she will reveal to the Inn owner who she is, but she couldn’t help but come check out the Sunrise Ranch, the home for foster kids that Mabel has written to her about.
She’s here for research, nothing more, but she isn’t counting on a flood, getting swept away and being rescued by a cowboy—a cowboy who immediately took her breath away and made her heart pound like never, ever has it done before.
She’ll keep her secrets and then move on…but can she? Mable had been right when she’d said meeting the boys at Sunrise Ranch would be life changing because Chet is one of those foster boys, he’s just all grown up and the stunning cowboy has put her world into an undeniable spin.
Can she overcome her past and let love take over? Will the boys and ladies of Dew Drop help make another match of hearts?
