Publisher's Synopsis
Rose Clarke has only ever wanted one thing: to spend her life caring for the family she loves. But when her godfather tells her his nephew in Montana has asked for her hand in marriage, she allows herself to be persuaded to set her sights on another goal - that of becoming a wife.
Abram Ward carries the tragedy of a failed romance - along with a heavy burden of guilt. He wants nothing more than to care for his ranch and be left alone. His mother's announcement that his uncle's ward is coming to Montana with the hope of marrying him catches him off guard. Determined to change her mind, Abram resolves to remain unmarried, despite his mother's assurances that Rose desires to be his bride. He is adamant that the ghosts of his past will keep him from love-until Rose, a beautiful young woman from Boston, challenges everything he believes.
