Annie Rutherford came west seeking a new life, never dreaming love would be part of the mix. The cravings that cowboys Jessie Conrad and Grant Douglas incite in her are fierce. The two men prove they are more than up to the task of satisfying Annie's hunger.

Jessie and Grant know Annie thinks their relationship is only temporary. They're willing to give her plenty of loving and plenty of time to heal from the past and get used to their unique brand of happy-ever-after.

But the past – in the form of Annie's ex-con brother-in-law comes back to haunt her, and she's thrown into a deadly game of cat and mouse. She didn't know about the jewel heist, or that her deceased husband had a second, secret partner, or that her brother-in-law is out of prison and on his way to find her. He intends to claim more than just the stolen gems, but not if Jessie and Grant have anything to say about it.
