As an ER doctor, Cheyenne Allison is used to handling emergencies—until her own sister codes on the trauma bed. Devastated, Cheyenne retreats to an isolated farm in Hideaway, Missouri. But peace and solitude are in short supply in this picturesque Ozarks town. A dangerous vandal has the community terrorized, and Cheyenne finds an unexpected demand for her medical skills.

Mayor Austin Barlow is convinced the culprit resides with Cheyenne's charismatic neighbor, Dane Gideon, whose ranch for foster boys has given rise to previous violence. Cheyenne distrusts Austin, while Dane inspires her respect, and perhaps something more. Then Cheyenne becomes the vandal's target, and she can only hope that Hideaway will prove her sanctuary . . . and perhaps a place to call home.
