She's a talented botanist on her way to a PhD-so why does she feel like a failure? Fired from her dream project in Costa Rica, Riley is stuck back in Steele Ridge, cataloguing plants on Steele land and trying to rebuild her confidence one field day at a time.

She soothes his wounded soul... and makes him want things he has no right to ask of her.
