The unacknowledged, illegitimate daughter of Carson’s father, Lara grew up on the ranch with her grandfather. Carson responded to her passion by drawing her close, then forgoing her advances and leaving her naked and wanting. Now she’s back at the ranch to research its history, not to see Carson, but he wants to see her and literally hunts Lara down to apologize for his behavior. Slowly he starts winning her over until she starts to believe he has changed. But can Lara trust a man who does not believe in love with a secret that has the potential to destroy them?
