When privileged Cami meets Patrick "Trick," the ranch hand her father would never approve of, their chemistry is absolutely electric—and completely forbidden. As they navigate sneaking around and defying expectations, what starts as thrilling rebellion deepens into something real and worth fighting for. But when Trick discovers a shocking family secret that ties him to Cami's world in ways neither of them saw coming, everything they've built threatens to crumble. This is a swoon-worthy Southern romance about choosing love over duty, with plenty of heat and heart to keep you turning pages.
