Librarian Karen Hartley is not looking for a cowboy. And she's most definitely not looking for a jock. So when ranch-owning, football-coaching Myles Wylder enters the scene with his inquisitive blue eyes and impossibly broad shoulders, as well as an offer to help save the town library, of course she says no. Just like she does when her heart begins to whisper that maybe there's more to this cowboy than meets the eye... Too bad he doesn't check off any of the boxes on her future Mr. Right list. ...but maybe it's time for a new list... Myles knows he's not what Karen's looking for in a partner. But with plans to save the Sweetheart Creek library he figures he can show her there's more to life-and him-than what's on her checklist. There's only one problem, he has a secret that might become a deal breaker. Will this cowboy find a way to win and keep the librarian? Or will his secret ruin everything as opposites attract in this small town sweet romance?
