No one's New Year should start jobless and single, but that's exactly where Cassie Stevens finds herself right before she receives news she's inherited an estranged relative's ranch. In a matter of twenty-four hours, Cassie stumbles into the small town, looking to put the place up for sale but soon finds out it is a buyer's worst nightmare. Thinking all hope is lost, she meets Luke Brennan, a local cowboy with no job and convinces him to help her fix and sell the ranch, promising him half the profits once it sells.. A potentially big payday, as long as they can keep their relationship buttoned up.
