An unexpected inheritance rekindles a red-hot romance just in time for Christmas...
Janessa Parkman spent one long-ago summer in Last Ride, Texas, trying to bond with her estranged father, Abe. Turns out that was plenty of time to fall hard - and crash badly - for Brody Harrell, who managed Abe's ranch. Everyone believed Brody would inherit Colts Creek one day, but now, fifteen years on, Abe's will reveals the shocking truth - Janessa gets everything, and she must agree to stay in town for three months...through Christmas.
Brody's attraction to Janessa burns hotter than ever. Though he refuses Janessa's offer to give him the ranch, refusing her is impossible. Misunderstanding drove them apart once before, and secrets and betrayals run through both families. But what starts as a temporary Christmas fling might turn into a love strong enough to last every holiday season yet to come.
