Chase half-heartedly agrees, until Libby's picture in the locket becomes his touchstone, helping him to survive his injuries. In New Mexico, Chase finds Libby in desperate straits and offers help instead of truth. Libby's horse ranch, plagued by unexplained accidents, is failing. Until the arrival of the war-scarred stranger, a neighbor's unwelcome offer of marriage was the only way to save her son's inheritance. But now, she has Chase. Working side-by-side, their passion becomes undeniable until Chase's truth is revealed. Now, Libby must decide: forgive or say goodbye forever.
