Rachel has always felt at home in the city the noise, the pace, the endless movement. So when she inherits her late uncle’s farm, she sees it as nothing more than a quick transaction: look over the property, sell it fast, and get back to her life. But stepping into the small town her uncle left behind, she discovers nothing about this place or its people will be simple.
The townsfolk watch her closely, uncertain of what changes a city woman might bring. Among them is Hank, a weathered cowboy with steady hands, a slow drawl, and sharp eyes that miss nothing. She first notices him at a town hall meeting, his quiet confidence and plainspoken honesty impossible to ignore.
Reluctantly, Rachel hires Hank to help her sort through the farm’s livestock and horses. What begins as business shifts into something else: late-night talks under wide skies, laughter over shared work, and a bond that grows as naturally as the land around them.
Yet Rachel’s heart is split between her city ambitions and the pull of this man who feels like home. Can Hank’s grounded world give her the sense of belonging she never knew she needed, or will she walk away from the one love that makes her question everything?
