After his made-for-TV romance goes bust, Brad McCabe hightails it back home to Laramie, Texas.

Miraculously, his wounded pride begins to heal when the domestically challenged McCabe men hire lovely Lainey Carrington to get their lives in order.... Trouble is, their tart-tongued "housekeeper" is here on false pretenses. An aspiring reporter on assignment for a splashy celebrity magazine, Lainey hopes to uncover the real story of Brad McCabe in a tell-all expose that will end his tenure as America's Most Loathed Bachelor. But all bets are off when she falls hard for the gruffly tender cowboy.... Now, once the truth comes out, this heartbreaking hottie just might break Lainey's own heart!
