Her dream of owning and operating a store is in full swing with handpicked clothes, jewelry and handbags making her struggles in the past almost worth it. The past she ran from years ago was tragic and rife with turmoil, which she hopes is behind her now that she has found a family to love her. Vanessa's half-brother's upcoming nuptials is the center focus of the whole town, and she is at the mercy of the bride, willing to help any way she can. When the bride requests her help in keeping Grady, the bride's recluse brother, busy during the wedding week, Vanessa is quick to say yes. How difficult can it be entertaining the person she has dubbed the Mountain Man?

The last time one of Grady Shields' family members made the trip to his Montana home it was to deliver the devastating blow of his father's death. Apprehension is heavy on his heart when his sister, Mia, steps out of the Jeep, even though he is thrilled to see her. Her news is not of death but of a new beginning; she is getting married and requesting his presence, so he can walk her down the aisle. Grady's family is worried about him ever since he quit the FBI, returning to the home where his wife was murdered. His sister is under the impression he is hiding away when all he is trying to do is recapture his well-being. Grady is surprised that he is needed a full week prior to the special day, but he is willing to leave his solitude to make her happy.
