Nash Cartwright has had enough of death and dying. A military veteran who has survived three combat deployments, he’s riddled with guilt and grief that he survived and his buddies didn’t. Trying to start over, he opens a new business venture, Cartwright Wilderness Outfitters, a family affair just outside of Cody, Wyoming.

Nash gets more than he bargained for when he meets beautiful Comfort Connelly, a young woman who arrives at his counter dealing with her own sorrows. He doesn’t need this, Nash thinks. He has his own problems.

Unfortunately for him, he’s scheduled to take Comfort on an overnight horseback ride into the mountains; a ride that transforms both of them and forces them to deal with their emotions and with the immediate connection between them.
