It was only supposed to be a short visit. It turned into a love affair.
Melanie White is in trouble. Young, unmarried, and with no resources to speak of, she's forced to flee home and hide out with her aunt on a ranch in a western mining town. She's just passing through on her way farther West, and it's a good thing, too: she can't stand the ranch owner. He's rowdy, immature...and undeniably attractive.
David Tanner has his life just the way he likes it: he does what he wants, when he wants, and nobody can tell him any different—least of all, his former nanny's niece Melanie, who likes books more than people.
But when a family emergency forces Melanie and David to work together, she discovers that there's more to him than meets the eye. And he finds out that life as a bachelor may not be what he likes after all.
Contains mild language and sensual content within marriage.
