Now, as owners of the Dalton Ranch, their partnership in the rundown operation leaves little time for raising hell—except for the right women who can turn on the heat . . .

While both manage to hold up their end of the bargain, they're growing closer than either of them can afford. Because Dax has a family secret that could drive him out of Crow Hill for good, and Arwen's not letting him go without a fight . . .
