It's hard to keep a secret in the small town of Pike,
Montana, but veterinarian Margot McDougal and sheriff Roy
Lee Hanson managed to keep their relationship on the sly for
months. Margot cares for Roy Lee, but the last thing she
needs is to worry about local gossip while she's busy
running her clinic and dealing with the loss of her beloved
father.
Roy Lee can't wait to tell the world that he loves
Margot.
He respected her decision to keep their affair quiet—until
now. It's time for everyone to know Margot is his
gal...especially Ryan Martin, her new assistant. He's
formed an attachment to Margot and Roy Lee is sure the city
boy's unexplained appearance in Pike means he's up to no good.
Margot just wants to help Ryan fit in, and Roy Lee's
jealousy soon drives a wedge between them. A wedge that only
increases when Margot is roped into Ryan's secret, too...
