Daisy Honey left Trusty, Colorado, years ago to escape the rumors that trailed her striking looks and provocative name, building a promising career as a physician far from home. When her father is hurt in a farming accident, she reluctantly returns, bracing for the small-town cruelty she remembers, only to collide with Luke Braden, the one man who ever stood up for her and the one she has never quite forgotten. Luke is handsome, wealthy, and the finest gypsy horse breeder in the West, and after a restless youth he is finally ready to settle down, even if connecting with women has never come as easily to him as connecting with horses. Then trouble from a neighboring town dredges up a past he would rather forget, forcing him to admit that his struggle to find love runs deeper than he realized. A single charged encounter sweeps them into a world of passion, and for the first time Luke feels a real connection. But Daisy's return was never meant to be permanent, and Luke cannot build a future until he lays his past to rest. It is a steamy small-town, second-chance romance about coming home and facing what you left behind.
