A girl from the wrong side of the tracks, Tara Jean Sweet knows that opportunity will never knock; sheโll have to seize it. Elderly Texas rancher Lyle Baker has a dying request: He will give Tara Jean a stake in his leather business in exchange for a little family subterfuge. All Tara Jean has to do is play the part of a gold-digging fiancรฉe to lure Lyleโs estranged children home. The mission is soon accomplished.
Now Lyleโs goneโand his ridiculously handsome son, Luc, an ice hockey superstar sidelined by injuries, is the new owner of Crooked Creek ranch. Heโs also Tara Jeanโs boss. But being so close to sinfully sweet Tara Jean does crazy things to Lucโs priorities, like make him want to pry her deepest secrets from those irresistible lips. But when Tara Jeanโs past demands a dirty showdown, will Luc stay and fight?
