I was a man without a family... or so I thought.
I came to tiny Majestic, Wyoming, to escape misfortune: the loss of my brother; my parents' blame for it; the billion-dollar secret that caused it all.
I find peace in my horses, in my friends, in quiet nights alone... and sometimes in remembering a scorching-hot one-night-stand from two years ago.
But everything changes when Tully Bowman, the man behind that unforgettable encounter, turns up in Majestic bringing me the daughter I've inherited (along with her multi-million-dollar trust fund).
Just like that, my peace becomes chaos, my quiet nights are filled with little Lellie's cries for "Daddy," and the heat between Tully and me becomes more than just a memory.
Because it seems Tully's planning to stick around... at least until I prove I'm a "suitable father" and not the fortune-hunter Lellie's grandparents think I am. And the longer we spend together-the more he challenges and provokes me, comforts and calms me-the harder it is to remember why I ever thought one night would be enough.
I'm a bad bet for fatherhood, but if I choose to keep Lellie and raise her as my own, it won't be for her money. It will be because this precious girl and the man who brought her to me might be the fresh start and new family my heart has been looking for.
And because the best thing that ever happened to me might just be... Inheriting Miss Fortune.
