When Joni Kley finished her degree in social work, she didn't feel like she could immediately quit her job as assistant manager of Kelsey's Kafé on River's End Ranch. Now that she is free to look around for something else, she's not sure where she wants to go. She loves Idaho and the ranch, and can't imagine living anywhere else, but there aren't exactly a lot of social work jobs in town. When a new cowboy shows up at the ranch, she's intrigued about the stories he tells her about the boys' ranch where he was raised and still works.
Max Logan sees Joni as soon as he arrives at River's End Ranch. She not only gives him warm coffee, but she takes him to the store and makes him buy winter gear--something he's never really needed at the ranch he works for in Texas. It doesn't take him long to realize he wants to take her home with him, and he suggests she apply for a job at the McClain Boys' Ranch.
Will she be able to go with him and live happily ever after? Or will his past come between them?
