Emily Stanford's trip to New York, and her plan to bring her orphaned goddaughter home to Coopers Creek, backfires. Hayley's coming home but to Emily's horror she's hired as Hayley's nanny and moving in with her ex-lover, Hayley's uncle, the handsome cowboy come banker, Tyler Jeffries. He still makes her heart pound -- even though four years ago he walked away from their relationship without a backward glance. Tyler hates that he has no choice but to let Emily move in, but this is about Hayley and what she needs. He can't believe the woman he blames for his sister's death still fiercely fires his blood. Back in Coopers Creek, out of his comfort zone, coping with PTA meetings and white picket fences, he lets his heart's defenses down, only to have Emily betray him again...Coopers Creek holds painful memories for Emily and Tyler. Can they forgive each other; can the town hold a beautiful new future for them both?
