Colorado rancher Luke O'Malley is shocked to hear that he has a teenage son living in New York City and even more shocked to learn that his son is in trouble. Luke had a brief romance with Megan Montgomery years ago and had no idea it resulted in a child. He just knew it had broken his heart.
Now Megan and Cody-their son-need his help. To avoid being sent to a juvenile detention center Cody must move to Colorado with his father. But there's a catch. Cody won't go unless Luke marries his mother.
It's a marriage of convenience, but their feelings from the past have never really gone away. Luke has always believed that family is the road to happiness. Can he convince Megan of that?
