Things have not gone well for Hayley Ryan. Her beloved grandfather is dead. Her ex-husband not only abandoned her for another woman but also stole Hayley's inheritance—and left her pregnant. All she has now is a piece of property to camp on—and a secret mine that might or might not produce.
Jake Cooper is part owner of the Triple C Ranch in southern Arizona. Hayley Ryan's campsite is adjacent to the Triple C. The first time Jake rides into her camp, she points a shotgun at his head—and without even knowing it, takes aim at his heart….
Jake is determined to persuade Hayley to trust him and marry him. As for Hayley's baby-to-be—he'd love the chance to be a dad!
