Movie star Trace McBride is in a bit of trouble. More than a bit. Heâs taken his bad-boy image too far, too many times, and when he gets arrested for skinny dipping in his producerâs pool â with his producerâs wife, itâs the last straw. His agent comes up with a plan to revamp Traceâs image â by going incognito for a cowboy movie on location - far away from the prying eyes of the Hollywood tabloids. Spending six months in the middle of nowhere sounds like an awful idea, until he runs into Cecilia Sanchez. Literally. Trace is irresistibly drawn to the nosy, sarcastic journalist, even though getting close to her is more than risky- itâs downright dangerous.
Investigative journalist Cecilia Sanchez is one good story away from getting out of the backwater town where she grew up. Forced to return home when her first big-city job backfires â note to self, itâs never a good idea to write an exposÊ your boss, even if itâs Pulitzer Prize-winning material - sheâs determined to put Prairie on the map for something besides rodeos and tornadoes. CiCi is definitely not interested in cocky newcomer Trace, and doesnât believe a word out of his sweet-talking mouth, but she canât seem to resist his kisses.
When CiCi uncovers the story of a lifetime, sheâs forced to confront her feelings for Trace, because letting the cat out of the bag this time might cost them both everything. Including each other.
