Buckshot, Texas, 1885
After a horrific storm rips through her hometown, Millie Stewart finds that her neighbors are in dire need of help. She sets out to do everything she can, but when her brother leaves her high and dry, she has to operate Stewart Mercantile on her own. The town is depending on her.
John Fletcher-smart, reserved, and mysterious-comes to town, sets up shop, and brings with him the knowledge needed to clear the log jam on the river, giving everyone a chance at survival.
John is a tad scary in Millie's opinion. Never mind that he's handsome. Never mind that he's generous. He makes her feel things. He makes her heart skip a beat, and suddenly, with barely a warning, she's in love. Only he doesn't seem to return the sentiment.
Her brother returns, but only to rob her blind. A little too mad and a whole lot tougher, Millie sets out to find him and give him what-for. Little does she know, someone is chasing her.
John won't let Millie go to battle alone, especially since she's the reason his heart is beating again. Can he get to Millie in time? Or will her ne'er-do-well brother's villainy take everything John holds dear?
