He thinks I broke his heart. What he doesn't know is that he crushed mine.
I'm Sarah Kirk, and this is my story. Ten years ago, I left Wildflower Canyon with my reputation in shreds and Cade Mercer's hatred in my rearview mirror. He believed I betrayed him. I couldn't defend myself—not when the man I loved turned against me. Now I'm back to run my late father's veterinary practice and clear my name. Cold stares follow me everywhere, but in ranch country with only two vets, they sometimes have no choice but to call me. Cade makes it clear he wants me gone, especially when his little girl takes a liking to me, and I fall hard for her. But when his precious Angus falls sick, to Cade's chagrin, I'm the only one who can help him. As Cade and I work together, there is no denying the sparks between us. When we uncover that someone is poisoning his ranch's future one head at a time, I realize the truth about the past won't set us free—it will tear us apart.
