After forty years, retired bull rider, Dustin Burnett discovers that his birth mother's alive and living in Temptation, Texas. Upon arriving, he spots the woman he loved but was forced to leave behind. Wiser than he was six years ago, he's determined to make things right and claim her once and for all.

Kacie Sutton has no desire to open her heart to the man that once tore it from her chest. The bitter reminder of Dustin's betrayal has never been far from her mind. Especially since the last time they made love, he'd gotten her pregnant and she'd been forced to raise their child alone. Now he's back, searching for answers about his past and hoping to make amends for his mistakes. Protecting her daughter has always been Kacie's priority, but keeping her distance from Dustin proves harder than she ever imagined.
