Haylee Hansen has made a career out of caring for and training the dogs and horses on her aunt's ranch.

But now her turbulent past is about to show up on her doorstep...

Haylee has seen her share of damaged people, but no one like Aiden. As she tries to match him with the perfect dog, he'll help her to see that no one has a perfect life. And that opening yourself up to love is the only way to heal your soul...
