New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Diana Palmer serves up one of her most popular Texans - Jason Donavan - in a thrilling story destined to enthrall her many fans!

Texas rancher Jason Donavan is known for his temper, his brooding nature, and his deep distrust of women. No one at the Diamond Spur ranch can stand his moods - except Kate Whittman. She might be young, but she knows Jason is the only man for her. Kate wants him more than anything, but he offers her only brotherly protection - until she discovers that Jason's desire for her is as strong as hers is for him.

Ever the gruff cowboy, Jason insists that commitment and love aren't for him. So Kate pursues her own life away from the man she loves. But just when it seems that her fairy tale is coming true, fate brings her back to Texas. To Jason. And to a dream that she'd almost abandoned.
