In a small town where second chances are rare and love isn't on the agenda, two souls collide, each carrying their own baggage. The free-spirited Trish Cassidy dreams of building her own horse ranch, but for now she's stuck waitressing just to stay afloat. Her clingy ex-boyfriend adds to the chaos, making her question her ability to build a life for herself. Just as she's about to give up on her dreams, fate sends a rugged modern-day cowboy into her life, offering her an opportunity she never could have imagined. All she has to do is resist the new boss's magnetic pull. Dalton James, an enigmatic loner, has one rule when it comes to his horse ranch: no interference. He wants to build his empire his way, free from family expectations and romantic entanglements. Yet when he stumbles upon Trish Cassidy, a woman who refuses to be rescued, he finds himself compelled to be her protector. Despite her independence, he can't help but do the right thing by her, even when she insists she doesn't need saving. If he's not careful, his protective instincts might push her back into the arms of her ex. In a town where pasts are hard to escape, can Trish and Dalton navigate their budding feelings and trust each other enough to seize their second chance at love?
