I was supposed to lay low while my Hollywood drama blew over. Not fall for a man with golden retriever energy who isn't afraid to take what he wants.

When I find myself back in the odd little town of Tipp, Montana, the last person I expect to fall for is an army vet turned cowboy.

Let alone discover he was my first kiss all those years ago. Back then, I never even knew his name.

Josh Laredo is smart, successful, and sexy as hell.

When my efforts to sneak onto his federally protected ranch don't go as planned, he covers for me.

Bit by bit he breaks down the walls I've created to protect my heart. And there's a filthy mouth buried beneath all that good guy bravado.

He's determined to peel back every one of my layers and give us the second chance he thinks we deserve. All he wants is to see the real woman beneath the Hollywood smile.

But I'm searching for answers, and as more secrets are revealed, I'm learning that things aren't always what they seem in Tipp, Montana.
