Heaven needed a sheriff, but Sara MacDougal never thought it would be her. When her father, Sheriff Mac MacDougal, died, the people of the little town in Arizona asked her to take over until the next election. Because she loves the town, Sara agrees.

Former cop turned rancher Logan Byden has no use for the pint-sized lady sheriff. His past has left him distrustful of women in law enforcement, and he feels an obligation to run against her in the upcoming election.

Compelled to join forces to capture the rustlers who have been stealing from Heaven’s ranchers, the two opponents find that, although they have conflicting opinions on what makes a good sheriff, they are beginning to have one thing in common. Is their mutual attraction going to be enough to overcome their ideological differences?
