What he doesn't know . . .
After a horse drags him through the countryside, Israel McKenna awakes bruised and battered in a field in Pancake Valley, Colorado. He can recall where he came from and where he was going, but the memory of how he came to be on the Pancake homestead eludes him. He's certain he did something wrong to deserve such a harsh punishment - and so is the beautiful woman who reluctantly comes to his aid.
. . . could hurt her.
Wilhelmina 'Willa' Pancake must focus on running her family's ranch. With Israel's hazy memory, she is unsure if she can trust him, let alone handle the budding attraction between them. And as men fight to steal her land and the truth about Israel's past rides toward them, love is a risk she cannot easily take.
