But when her sister's reckless mistake entangles them with a cunning criminal, Simone's dreams of stability crumble, forcing her to seek help from an unlikely ally -- the sheriff's steadfast son.

But when he crosses paths with Simone, her courage and complexity challenge everything he thought he wanted. Could he sacrifice his valued stability to help this fiery lady find a way out of her fallout?

As secrets unravel and danger mounts, Simone and Wade join forces to uncover more than just criminal motives. In their fight for justice, can the two of them trust each other, putting their differences aside? Or is their blossoming love doomed to a quick end, in a world that's anything but simple?
