After a failed correspondence marriage, Sarah Whitman is determined to protect her heart. But when her family’s financial troubles deepen, a rancher offers her a marriage in exchange for her nursing skills to care for his sick mother. Hesitant yet desperate, Sarah must decide if she can make the most of this unexpected proposal—or risk losing her heart once again.

Dan McAllister’s life has been upended by his father’s death, leaving him to manage the family ranch alone. When his mother falls gravely ill though, she takes matters into her own hands and arranges a correspondence marriage for him—without his knowledge. Now, Dan must navigate his new responsibilities while grappling with a partner he never expected.

Thrown together by circumstance, Sarah and Dan must contend with sabotage, a sick mother, and a growing distance between them. As danger closes in, they find themselves drawn together—reluctantly at first. Can they overcome their pasts and trust each other before it’s too late?
