Nothing worth having comes free. Not even that which fate brings together.

Arne had nothing more on his mind than tending to the family ranch that had been passed down for generations. Nothing until the golden-haired beauty almost ends his life with a single shot. What does he do with the poacher? He takes her home, of course.

Jinn is running for her life when she finds an old, abandoned shack in the middle of nowhere. Food becomes a top priority until she tries to shoot a deer only to find herself locked in a battle of wills with the cowboy she almost shot.

He doesn't understand, though, that his life is now in danger. She's running from a very dangerous man who has sworn to catch her. If she doesn't keep running, she won't be the only one he'll teach a lesson.

He'll do whatever it takes to protect her, even if it means becoming more than she bargains for.
