A chance meeting at the Inaugural Ball in January sets a 46-year-old Billionaire industrialist and horse rancher, and a 32-year-old attorney, on a life-altering path of love and passion. But neither of them could ever imagine just how much their lives would be changed.

When a winter storm traps Alexander Barclay and Delaney Connor in their Washington DC hotel for several days, neither guessed that love would be the result. Alex had already planned to retire from his business to make time for a family, but Laney was at a crossroads with her career-torn between the partnership she'd been working for and the personal life that she craved. Alex showed her the life she could have, but will she walk away from everything she thought she wanted?

When Alex invites Laney back to his North Texas horse ranch, Laney never thought that she'd find herself in the middle of a "wild west" range war between Alex's ranch hands and a vicious gang of international criminals hell-bent on taking everything of value from the ranch. Can Alex and Laney's romance-and their very lives-survive this threat?
