Ella has always been determined and headstrong, vowing only to marry for love. At her age, it seems like her chances of that happening have slipped away.

When she is left the title to half of a neighboring farm, she sees the opportunity to have her independence, and not become a burden to her family. The only problem is that there are stipulations, one being the fact that she has to work alongside the man who's been left the other half of that farm.

Titus Cain has his own demons to face, and taking over a farm in Oregon with a woman isn't in his plans.

To make matters worse, someone else has their eye on the land, and they've already proven they're willing to kill whoever gets in their way to get it.

What will happen when two people are forced to join together to save a farm, and risk their lives to find who killed the man they both loved? Can a young woman live on a farm with a man who isn't her husband, without ruining her reputation, even if it is for all the right reasons?

Ella & Titus must fight together against the circumstances trying to tear them apart.
