Georgie Zielinski has invested everything she owns in a dilapidated B&B in Saddle Wells, Texas. She doesn't have anything left over to hire someone to help her get the place back to its former glory, so when a rough-around-the-edges cowboy offers his handyman services, she listens to her gut and takes him on.

Cade Hannigan was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, but it's long since tarnished, and he's a down-on-his-luck cowboy if there ever was one. All he has now is his beat-up truck and a reputation so bad no one will hire him. Luckily for Cade, newcomer Georgie doesn't know anything about the man he used to be, and she accepts his help in exchange for room and board.

As they work together on the old B&B, they start to build a tenuous friendship that soon explodes into wild passion. But not everyone is ready to give Cade a second chance, and their newfound happiness could disappear like smoke.
