Willie Adams is at the L.A. Equestrian Center shopping for her first horse. A young widow struggling with the idea of dating again, she never expects that a gorgeous cowboy like Tyler Ransome would notice her. But he does. He isn’t the only one. Bobby Fermino is not as handsome, nor as pleasant. After attacking Willie he ends up dead in her tack room, leaving her the most likely suspect. Detective Lucas Macy has a magnetic quality that Willie can’t resist, but her interference in his investigation keeps them at odds, even as they are drawn to one another. With growing evidence pointing to her, Willie decides to search for the murderer herself. It can’t be any more dangerous than opening her heart to someone new, right?
