Synopsis

One dance at Valentine’s…

And a family for keeps?

Working as a park ranger in his Wyoming hometown is single dad Evan Arthur’s best bet to provide a stable home for his daughter. But when five-year-old Penny struggles to adapt to her rugged new environment, kindhearted librarian Cate Wiseman provides a safe haven with a cozy chair and a good book. It’s no hardship for Evan to spend time with Cate—and he wouldn’t mind getting closer if she’d let him. But an old injury has made Cate wary of trusting others. And they’re both afraid to risk their fragile friendship…and their hearts. Could a stray puppy and a young girl’s love bring the unlikely pair together for Valentine’s Day—and maybe forever?
