Nothing could stop small-town gal Reily Eckardt from heading to Nashville and living the dreamтАжuntil her car and cash savings were stolen en route. Now she was high and dry in Paradise, Colorado, population 1,632, relying on the kindness of strangersтАФin particular, bar and grill owner Joe Miller. But why did the single dad have to be so gruffтАФand cuteтАФwhile he was being kind? Her mission: save up and split before getting sidetracked by this sexy enigma.
Sure, Joe could offer Reily a job at his bar. Renting her his garage apartmentтАФno problem. But giving her a place in his heartтАФno way! Poor JoeтАФit wasn't long before the country crooner had him singing a different tune.
