One broken heart.
One battered soul.
No one said life would be fair or easy. Quiet, Peruvian-born artist Cassie López learned this the hard way. Betrayed by the man she planned to marry, she shut herself off far away from all but her closest friend from college...
Until the night Luke Denton came crashing into her Colorado mountain sanctuary with a vengeance. Confused by her heart's response to this kind and gentle man, Cassie pushes herself to help the cowboy recover quickly so she can send him on his way. But Luke's patience and understanding threaten to break down the very defenses she needs to survive in this world.
Search-and-Rescue worker Luke, who lost his wife and unborn child in a tragic accident, also knows firsthand of the unfairness of life. He keeps his own nightmares at bay by focusing on his rescue activities, most recently adopting and working with abused and neglected horses.
Can two wounded people find trust and love together? Do nightmares end where dreams come true?
