Can love bloom between a woman who was forced to sell herself and the man who bought her to get her ranch?
Roxane Rosthchild is up for auction. Well, her and her ranch. She knew it would be too much to hope for that the man who bought her would be more interested in her than in the property, and money, that came with her. But she's been down this road before β a marriage that isn't perfect. Her only concern now is protecting her son and making sure she keeps her independence.
Boone Stryker is disillusioned and restless. Seeing a ranch, and a woman, up for auction challenges his soul and gives him a reason to live again. He risks everything he owns to win the ranch. But in order to win the lady's heart, he could lose so much more.
