Sharon had been dreaming of this day since her parents died
and her uncle assumed her guardianship-five long years ago. But as
she steps off the stagecoach in Farmington, New Mexico, life takes
another dramatic shift, and Sharon finds herself alone again. Ranch
foreman Jason Riordan has the unenviable task of telling this
citified young woman that her uncle is dead and she now owns the
Lazy H and all the work that goes with it. How will an
eighteen-year-old girl ever manage all the duties of running a
ranch? As a drought moves in and tensions mount, the questions
surrounding her uncle’s death loom large. Suddenly, Sharon finds
herself the next target of a mysterious gunman. Can Jason find a
way to protect the woman he has grown to love?
