After a devastating loss, hospice nurse Tori Morgan retreats to a remote Montana ranch, determined to rebuild her life. Love, she believes, only strikes once—and hers is gone. Solitude seems safer than risking her heart again.Then she meets her new boss.
Wade McBride is six‑foot‑four of rugged Montana heat, the kind of man who makes clear thinking nearly impossible. When Tori learns she must pretend to be his fiancée to protect his ailing mother’s peace of mind, she agrees—telling herself it’s only temporary.
Wade expected a nurse. What he didn’t expect was Tori: steady, compassionate, and a spark of light in a world that’s dealt him more than his share of darkness. Pretending to love her seemed simple enough…until the chemistry between them becomes impossible to ignore—and danger begins to stir at the edges of the ranch.
One “test kiss” shatters the line between real and pretend. Wade wants more. Tori isn’t sure she’s ready. His mouth may be a lethal weapon, but her heart is the one at risk.
As the threats around them close in, they’re forced to confront the truth neither wants to face: What happens when make‑believe becomes real—and walking away is no longer an option?
