She can't afford to take any more wild chances
Pregnant widow Emma's already struggling to raise her children alone...and keep her debt-ridden ranch going. Rugged musician Cash can only mean trouble, no matter how well he repairs her broken fences, comforts her still-grieving children - or tempts her fiercely independent heart.
