When family obligations and his own ambitions hang in the balance, only a woman can tip the scales.
Running the family ranch in rural Kansas was never part of Cody’s plans, but after a tragic accident, his own plans don’t seem to matter anymore. Each day takes him further from his dreams until an alternate ending scribbled in the back of a library book leads him to Lina, a beautiful college student with extraordinary optimism. Between her idealism and his bleak reality, a secret festers.
Romance-obsessed Lina can’t wait to fall in love, so when an irresistible young cowboy visits her library, she’s a classic case of heart eyes. Her flirty new crush is the perfect distraction from life-long heartache. But if she’s learned anything from dating college guys, it’s an overeager romantic never finds Prince Charming.
Torn between caution and abandon, Lina trusts Cody with her heart. He isn’t ready to be quite so open, and when his secret finally comes to light, his whole world falls apart. The only thing he’s sure about anymore is Lina.
He deserves nothing from her, but he can’t help wanting everything, and he’ll do whatever it takes to prove his love.

She can’t trust anyone. So why should she trust the cowboy who’s stealing her heart?
Ruby Grant doesn’t believe in fairy tales, and the hope of a happily-ever-after is a luxury she can’t afford. Five years after her rescue from human traffickers, her scars keep her safely distanced from relationships. When her therapist challenges her to take horseback riding lessons as an exercise in letting her guard down, she turns to the best cowboy she knows.
Golden boy. A straight arrow. Too picky. Ranch owner Eli Trygg has heard it all but doesn’t take the labels too seriously. While he searches for the perfect woman to have a perfect future with, Ruby has an unfamiliar hold on him. She is distant, has impenetrable walls around her heart, and her past is a dark secret. So why is Eli falling for the most complicated woman around?
Like the flickering fireflies, Ruby lives free and in the moment, until Eli makes her think about the future. But how could a perfect golden boy ever fall for a damaged girl like her? When Ruby’s past threatens to destroy everything, only tomorrow will tell if they’ll survive to claim their love.
