From the moment Tanner Barron laid eyes on Desiree Holt, he knew she was the only woman for him. His dream girl. The only problem - it was an impossible dream. Their paths crossed early on, before she became a country music star and before he had anything to offer her other than his adoration. One night, in a dark alley off 6th Street in Austin, Tanner rescues Desiree from two men who have her cornered, threatening her. She wants to thank him, but he disappears just before the police arrive. Desiree doesn't forget, even when she's offered a record deal and whisked off to Nashville, where she pens a song in his honor - White Knight.A decade passes before they meet again. Fate brings them together just when they need one another the most. He's trying to find peace after a failed search and rescue mission and Desiree is seeking healing after another attack - this time by an over-zealous fan which has left her traumatized and unable to sleep.Their time together begins at Christmas, but it doesn't end there. They find solace in one another, despite the things that could keep them apart. They're from two different worlds, she's famous, he's just a cowboy who would die for her. Tanner's not sure he's good enough, she's not sure she can satisfy him - after all he's a young, virile stud and she's almost a decade older than he is. Will distance, age, and fame keep them apart? Or will the fact that they're head over spurs in love with one another be enough?
