She chose ambition over love. He rebuilt his life after tragedy. Now her grandmother's will brings them face to face again.

High-powered corporate attorney Simone Washington has spent a decade building her career in Chicago, with partnership at a prestigious firm finally within reach. But when her grandmother passes away and leaves her Pine Meadow Ranch, there's a catch—Simone must spend thirty days personally assessing the property before making any decisions about its future.

Returning to Pine Valley, Montana means confronting the past she left behind, including Levi Grant—her first love and the man whose heart she broke when ambition called her away. Now Pine Meadow's ranch manager, Levi has rebuilt his life after a career-ending rodeo accident left doctors saying he'd never walk again. The last thing he needs is Simone's return stirring up feelings he thought long buried.

As Simone reconnects with the community and discovers her grandmother's legacy, she begins questioning the definition of success she's chased for years. Meanwhile, Levi shows her his vision for Pine Meadow's future—one that honors its history while embracing new possibilities.

When developers offer a deal too good to refuse and her Chicago firm demands her immediate return, Simone faces an impossible choice. Does true success mean claiming the corner office she's sacrificed everything to achieve, or embracing the life—and love—she left behind?

A heartfelt story about finding home in unexpected places and the courage to choose a different kind of happiness, even when it means reimagining the future you thought you wanted.
