After two years on the run, Althea Hudson may have finally found her safe haven. Who'd have thought it would be in Wyoming, at a sprawling ranch owned by three rugged alpha males? But it's strapping Nathan Wilde who's making her heart beat faster… even if the sensual cowboy has made it clear he's not in the market for romance.

Althea's genteel manner and sweet charm don't fool Nathan for a minute. Stung by his ex-fiancée's betrayal, the relationship-wary rancher isn't prepared for the overwhelming desire his newest hired hand arouses. But the stunning belle is hiding something…and she may be too proud to ask for his help. If Althea only trusted Nathan with her secret, could they transform the heartbreak of the past into a passionate love for the future?
