My first day on the job as a conservation officer for the wildest district in Idaho ends in disaster when I find out the girl who rode my thigh and made expert use of her mouth in the back of a crowded bar four nights ago is none other than my grumpy mentor’s spirited daughter. But it’s worse than having to explain my obsession with the girl who ran off before I could get her number, because she begs me to keep us a secret. And if there’s one thing I’ve learned now that I’m sober, is how destructive just one secret can be. But even if I was willing, keeping this one would be impossible because not only am I her dad’s shadow for the next two months, Linnea is our district’s other new hire, which makes us coworkers. We try to cool things down, but thanks to our crackling chemistry, that’s another impossible task, and each meetup ends with us hooking up – in my truck, my room, the barn – and too late I’m falling for this girl, consequences be damned. But there are malicious forces at work, ready to tear us apart. Forces determined to end our chance at happiness, to take our courage and love and snuff it out…for good.
