In the picturesque tiny town of Perfect, Indiana, a down-but-not-out career gal clashes with a soldier hiding a painful secretβ¦
Paige Langford has it all: wealth, beauty, and ambition. Yet when her boyfriendβs betrayal costs her both her dream job and her reputation, she retreats to her brotherβs rural home in Indiana to heal and figure out the rest of her life. There she meets Ryan Malloy, a gruff, hard-drinking cowboy whose surly temper canβt hide the pain in his eyes.
Ryan Malloy has lost it all. He is a man on the edge, haunted by war and a lost love, who finds solace in a bottleβuntil a job offer from his former commander provides a glimmer of hope, and a second chance for the future.
Paige has always avoided brooding bad boys like Ryan, yet he might be exactly what she needs, while Ryan, the man who thought he had nothing left to live for, is tempted to risk his battered heart one last time...
