She doesn't need help. He doesn't know how to stop giving it. Geena Allen is determined to make it on her own-raising her daughter, chasing her rodeo dreams, and proving she doesn't need anyone to rescue her. Especially not Trey Mann. Trey made a promise he intends to keep¿ even if it means stepping into a life that was never supposed to be his. The problem? The more he helps, the more Geena resists-and the harder he falls for the one woman he can't have. Because she's not just any woman. She's his best friend's widow.

But when old wounds rise to the surface and the truth of the past finally comes to light, Geena and Trey must decide what matters more-holding on to what was¿ or risking everything for what could be. In a town where hearts are tested and second chances don't come easy, will they keep holding on to the past- Or finally choose each other?.
