A serious single mom can pretend to be something she’s not. A carefree cowboy can pretend he doesn’t want commitment. When opposites realize they’re the perfect match, nothing can stop them.
Lacey has fought hard to get custody of her son back. Now that she’s won that emotional battle, she’s determined to never let anything jeopardize her role as is mom. As a target of gossip in their small town, her waitress job makes her more visible than she’d like. But being friendly brings bigger tips.
Flirtatious and outgoing, Mack is drawn to Lacey and tries to get her attention. He’s sure she’ll be smitten when she finally notices him. Eventually she flirts back but refuses when he asks her out. Normally, he’d take her rejection as a sign and not put his heart on the line. This time something makes him ask again.
Just after she says yes to a date, he finds out she has a kid. Since he’s not plugged in to the gossip mill, this news is a surprise. When she puts him on the spot and asks if her son is a problem, he says no.
Little did either of them know that one date could change everything. And one little boy could be the center of a family that was meant to be.
