As if the mishaps on the ranch aren?t enough to deal with, her new life is shaken even more when she meets the new sheriff in town. He is none other than the man who broke her heart twenty years-ago when he chose the FBI over her. Torn between allowing him to help or closing down her ranch, Jessica is forced to let him back into her life. Ethan Kirkpartick is thrilled with his new job as the Sheriff for Coconino County.
