He was the only man who made her heart pound and her pulse jump, but would his quest for vengeance destroy their chance for anything more? Poppy Flynn gets bored easily, never staying with a job or relationship for long. After a year of cancer treatments, she's in remission and ready for a change. Her new position as manager on an Idaho sheep ranch excites her as much as the neighboring, sexy, attitude-riddled rancher. Her encounters with Dakota Smith amuse her until he takes over her tour of his private club. Then, all she wants is more of him, any way she can get him. Searching for the man Dakota Smith knows is responsible for his mother's murder is his top priority, and he doesn't have the time or patience for a relationship. So, why does he find himself concerned over one irritating redhead's underweight appearance and the fatigue he sees on Poppy's face when she pushes herself? Unable to resist getting involved, he vows nothing will keep him from avenging his mother, no matter how close he and Poppy become. Thwarting an attempt on Poppy's life shakes Dakota, but not as much as finally locating the man who killed his mother. Soon he's forced to choose between honoring his vow of revenge or go to the only woman he's ever loved when she needs him most.DISCLAIMER: This steamy, contemporary Western romance contains elements of mystery, suspense, and power exchange.
