Accused of a crime he didn’t commit, Conrad Sturgess is on a desperate mission to clear his name. The family lawyer’s brutal murder has shaken the community, and all evidence points to Conrad: last seen arguing with the victim and with his own ax used as the murder weapon.
Nikki Guidry arrives at the Sturgess ranch to speak with her father, only to find herself driving into a murder scene—her father is the victim. Thrown together by tragedy, Nikki and Conrad must team up to uncover the truth behind the murder.
As danger closes in and secrets unfold, their growing attraction becomes undeniable. But in this high-stakes game, they must risk not only their lives but their hearts to bring justice to the Sturgess ranch. Can they find the real killer before it's too late, or will their budding romance be shattered by the cold grip of crime?
