Leila Rose had never been one for too much adventure. She lived a quiet life in Arizona where she tried to keep to herself as much as possible. Although she always dreamed of having a family of her own, Leila hasn’t been lucky in love, and it doesn’t help that her parents suffered a rocky relationship before both of them passed away. When Leila discovers an ad for a mail-order bride wanted in Montana, she wonders if this is the twist of fate she’s been waiting for. At the encouragement of her friend Pete, Leila responds to the ad, sure that her letter will be denied. It comes as a surprising boost to her confidence to find that not only does the billionaire rancher in Billings, Montana want to meet her, he also thinks that the photo she enclosed is beautiful. Leila wastes no time in packing up and heading West to meet him. When Leila meets Dusty Springer, the rancher, her heart is set afire. He’s handsome and polite, and she feels like theirs is a connection that was meant to be. However, Leila soon discovers that Dusty’s heart is still deeply intertwined with Emily’s, his supposedly deceased wife. Leila struggles with wanting to care for Dusty’s son Carter, and wanting to share in a relationship with Dusty, while simultaneously worrying that Emily is a ghost that haunts Dusty’s past.
