Kennedy Stacey couldnâ€™t be more down on her luck. Her father, a rodeo cowboy, recently passed away after a long, expensive illness. The medical bills, combined with his habit of gambling and the fact that she had to quit her job to take care of him,has left her homeless and with no place to go but back to the rodeo. She tracks down Luke Delaney, one of her fatherâ€™s proteges, and asks for help. ,Luke Delaney thought of Red Stacey as a father. Kennedy didnâ€™t call him when Red was sick, so he didnâ€™t get to say good-bye to the man he loved like a father. He canâ€™t forgive her for that, and turns her away.,But when she turns to his brother Liam for help instead,Luke steps forward, partly because of his concern of how his brother the player will treat her, and partly because he knows her father would want him to. ,Since sheâ€™s homeless, she has to stay in his tiny RV. At first close quarters lead to sparring as they fight their attraction--and she fights to have some kind of independence when sheâ€™s leaning so heavily on him. But nature can only hold out so long, and despite their better judgement, they give in to their desires. ,But Kennedy is afraid heâ€™s taking her body in payment, and heâ€™s afraid of the feelings he has for her as he gets to know her again, the feelings he hasnâ€™t let himself feel since they were sixteen years old.
