It's not long before he is introduced to the son that she had with his best friend. The best friend who would've followed Chase anywhere...even the bull riding circuit with its deadly potential.

Chase knows Hailey deserves more than a broken-down cowboy for her son and her heart. Can Chase resist the call of the rodeo and man up for a woman he's loved for years or will he leave for the allure of the road?
