Josephine Mae Andrews was one third owner of the Rocky Point Ranch. Her young daughter and some fellow her husband sold his share to held the other half. Her dream was to turn the ranch into a women’s retreat. Josie was also trying to escape her very checkered past and move on after her husband's death.

Gil Yancey was finally reaching his dream. He had made an agreement with an old friend Mr. Andrews to buy up his share of a ranch and help Mrs. Andrews start up her business venture. When he got to Rocky Point Ranch it was to his great shock that the woman he was supposed to help was also the same woman who swindled him and stole all his money years before.

As Josie and Gil try to put the past behind them and find a way to make a go of the ranch, sparks, embers and tempers fly. Gil sees Josie as the woman who wronged him, and all Josie can see is the cowboy she used to fund her escape from her old life. Will Josephine’s past come back to haunt her and ruin all she has worked hard for, or will Gil find a way to get past this old pain between them and help her when she needs him the most?

Janette Kenny has written a very steamy romance with plenty of twists and turns that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the end of the book. The world she has created sucks you back into old west Wyoming, when men were real cowboys and the woman could handle almost any situation. Her two main characters are wonderfully written, and have enough fire and attitude between them to light the sky on fire. I really enjoyed reading this book.
