She went to Montana to inspire her next book. Instead, she found the woman to rewrite her whole story.  Alicia Hidalgo seems to have it all. A Puerto Rican New Yorker with a bestselling series and celebrity fans, she’s built a glittering life of book deals, brunches, and bustle—but when her creativity stalls, so does her carefully curated world. Fueled by a few too many glasses of wine and a mounting sense of desperation, Alicia books herself a stay at a working ranch in Montana, hoping that wide skies and silence might finally break her writer’s block. What she doesn’t expect is Georgia Hartley, the ranch’s lead wrangler. Strong, capable, and devastatingly grounded, Georgia can fix a fence post, calm a horse, or take Alicia’s breath away without saying a word. She’s everything Alicia isn’t: patient, unhurried, and at peace in a world far removed from New York’s chaos. But life in small-town Montana isn’t always easy, and the gulf between their worlds is wider than the plains that stretch between them. As Alicia’s deadline looms and Georgia’s past resurfaces, both women must decide if love can bridge the distance, or if some stories are meant to end where they began.  A slow-burn, opposites-attract romance about finding love where you least expect it, and daring to stay once you do.
