When a woman is the magnet for the wrong man, it takes a bad boy to break old habits.

Carolina Rodriguez is a large-animal veterinarian on a mission to escape South Florida. Willing to do just about anything, she accepts a job in Annona, Texas over the internet from a family connection. At her cousin's wedding, she runs into a handsome Texan in the parking lot. Over a fender-bender and mini faceoff, she meets Matt McLemore.

Matt is more than gorgeous. He's Carolina's new boss, and needs her help to determine why his cattle keep dying.

He proposes to introduce her to his family as his girlfriend, giving her the opportunity to work and stay at his ranch without arousing anyone's suspicion. Only after she learns she's the last chance to help save his family's cattle reputation does she agree to act the part of his girlfriend. His raw attraction to Carolina is an excruciating temptation, but a roll in the hay may prove too volatile to handle.


Matt attempts to keep a hands-off relationship until they work side-by-side on his ranch and she's too hot to resist. Carolina refuses to admit Matt's rugged sensuality is more than overpowering or that she's the least bit tempted by a smooth talking bad boy.


But by the time the lab reports comes back, they've explored every inch of each other. All of a sudden, this fiery affair is more than just a fling. When a past flame threatens to overwhelm their newfound romance, Matt is forced to find a way to stake his claim to Carolina's heart before it's too late.
