Stacey Michaels is trying to get her acting career back on track while looking after her traumatized teenage brother and a demanding mother. She doesn't have time for romance. And if she did? Well, she'd look to date someone in the business, not some cowboy.

But when her brother begs her for a chance to try the equine therapy program Colt Montgomery offers at his ranch in Colorado, Stacey can't refuse. Even if she and Colt strike sparks off one another.

She knows he sees her as a diva, but why can't he understand she just wants what's best for her brother? She's spent her whole life taking care of others—maybe it's time to let Colt take care of her.

Commitment phobic Colorado cowboy, Griffin McAlister had it all figured out. Do the reality dating show, get the money his family desperately needs, and go on with his life. Actually falling in love was never part of the deal…least of all falling in love with the show's spunky director.

Maggie Sullivan knew she found a star the minute she met Griffin. But as she gets to know the man behind the dimples, she realizes she might have found something more. It doesn't matter though; she has a job to do. Besides, how could he ever notice her while he's busy wooing ten gorgeous women?

Now, Griffin has a choice to make: stick with the plan and lose Maggie forever, or risk everything for a chance to win her heart!

Broken hearts are hard to mend...

Leaving his Colorado home town was the second hardest thing Reed Montgomery ever did – the first was breaking up with Avery McAlister, his high school sweetheart. Now his western roots are calling the citified CEO back to his family ranch to be surrogate dad to his niece, Jess. Of course, he can't help being pulled back into Avery's world.

Keeping her financially strapped animal shelter open is Avery's first priority – her second turns out to be helping Reed with his parenting skills. They may be bonding, but her former flame still has some serious explaining to do about the secret that drove him away.

The ghosts of the past and a rekindled desire bring Reed and Avery ever closer together. But will Reed embrace his future...as a cowboy, a father, and as the man for Avery?
