Who can we count on? The family we're born into, or the one we create for ourselves? Renowned chef Laina Ming walked away from the culinary spotlight and an unhealthy relationship-one that still haunts her a year later. She's trying to start fresh in the Rocky Mountains, opening a concept restaurant on the banks of the Roaring Fork River, where she hopes she'll be able to express her passion for food and bury her heartache. Horse rancher Logan Matthews moved to Aspen to be near his sister and her husband, grateful for his newfound family. Since a chance meeting with Laina the previous summer, Logan's been enchanted. But she doesn't want anything to do with him-which makes her all the more appealing. Despite Laina's efforts to protect her heart, Logan has been on her mind, too-and he has a way of turning up in the most unexpected places.¿Can they learn to trust one another and finally find the sense of belonging they've both been searching for?
