"What is even in South Dakota? Isn't it all like ... cowboys and horses?"

New York City paramedic Iris Cassidy thrives on adrenaline and chaos-and it's taking its toll. Trying to save her life, her parents ship her off to West Hope, South Dakota, to care for a great uncle she hardly knows.

Enter Simon "Bull" LePirate, a gentle giant of a ranch hand who's more comfortable with cattle than words. When Iris crashes into his quiet world, Bull finds himself tongue-tied around the vibrant city girl who brings excitement to everything she touches.

But Iris is only supposed to be in West Hope for twelve months, and she's counting down the days until she can return to her real life in the city. When Bull tells an accidental lie about dating Iris, he has to find the courage to turn a fake date into a real one.

Suddenly, Iris discovers that slowing down might not be the punishment she thought it was-especially when it comes with a cowboy who sees past her issues and straight to her heart.

Can a paramedic addicted to excitement find happiness in a town where the biggest emergency is a goat in the road? And will Bull risk his heart on a woman who might leave the moment her year is up?
