Love is on the distant horizon for Joseph Young. As the last available Young brother, he's got his share of ladies vying for his attention and he loves every minute of it even if it means getting shot at. When a stunning redhead shows up on his radar, he's intrigued, but nowhere ready to go beyond a few stolen moments. Rose Gilbert isn't looking for love in the remote town of Bandera. She's there for one reason, to get some lab samples for her job and go home to New York where she has the conveniences of shops close by, subway trains to take her where she wants to go, and a life she enjoys. Will secrets and corporate corruption lay waste to something that might be the best thing to ever happen to them? What happens when two such different people are attracted to one another? Sparks fly, worlds collide, and intrigue is the name of the game.
