The only thing standing between Maple Leighton and her dream of becoming a veterinarian? Just one year in small-town Bluebonnet, Texas. But fulfilling the conditions of her scholarship won't be easy, especially once buttoned-up Maple learns why she was left the quaint practice. Plus, she has to contend with know-it-all town pediatrician Ford Bishop! Gregarious Ford's clearly suspicious of Maple's motives. But as his suspicion fades--and as Maple makes friends throughout town with the help of a gorgeous golden retriever--the attraction sparking between the unlikely duo can't be denied. There's just something about the Texas sun that might give these two opposites a new leash on love!
