Il espère enterrer le passé. Elle est prête à mettre les choses à plat.
L’ouverture de la saison du Sterling Ranch ne se passe pas aussi bien que prévu. Alors que la loge du ranch est pleine d’invités et que le blizzard du Montana est menaçant, Will Sterling a besoin d'aide - et il en a besoin rapidement. Alors, quand son amie d’enfance, Poppy Carmichael, accepte de lui donner un coup de main, il est reconnaissant  de cette seconde chance… et est encore plus attirée par la femme qu’elle est devenue que ce qu’il veut bien admettre.

Pour Poppy, c’était censé être une retraite pleine de promenades à cheval et de calèches - dans l’idée de montrer à Will ce qui lui manquait depuis toutes ces années. Mais à mesure que la neige s’approfondit à l’extérieur, la suspicion et la méfiance des clients s’intensifient, capturant Will et Poppy dans la ligne de mire.

Résister à la tempête dans les bras l'un de l'autre est bien trop facile pour Will et Poppy, mais une confrontation avec un meurtrier signifiera-t-elle que leur retrouvailles seraont de courte durée?

L'auteur bestseller du New York Times et de USA Today, B.J. Daniels commence sa série Sterling’s Ranch avec brio dans cette histoire à suspense de romance et de vengeance.

  Excerpt:

 He groaned. “You aren’t making this any easier.” He was already short-staffed. Normally the guest ranch didn’t take guests this early in the season. Late spring and summer were the guest ranch’s busiest times, with a fall season for hunters. But a friend of their father’s had made a special request for Will to open for four days in March. Big Jack Hanson owned a small fly-fishing vest company outside of La Quinta, California, called On the Fly. Big Jack wanted to hold a retreat for some of his employees at Sterling Montana Guest Ranch, a place from his youth. He’d been uncompromising on when. Although anxious to get his first season running the guest ranch alone started, Will had tried to talk him out of it, reminding him what the weather could be like this time of the year in the mountains of Mon­tana. Also that they would be short-staffed. Which meant that the guests would be making their own beds each day and taking care of the housekeep­ing in their cabins. Dorothea would be helping in the kitchen and making sure their guests had every­thing they needed from daily treats in their cabins to clean towels. “Sounds perfect,” Big Jack had said. “Won’t hurt them a bit to do for themselves for what time we’re there.” A charismatic, large man with red hair like a fire­plug, blue eyes and a talent for hyperbole, Big Jack had offered to pay extra. “My crew needs this. I need this. You don’t have to roll out the red carpet or go to any trouble.” Spoken like a man who knew nothing about hosting guests. But Will had given in since, at one time, Big Jack had been like family. He knew his father would have wanted him to do whatever was necessary to accommodate Big Jack and his employees. At the sound of the shuttle van arriving from the airport down in the valley, Will knew he couldn’t be choosy about a cook. His guests would be expecting dinner tonight and since neither he nor Dorothea could do more than boil water… He called information for Poppy Carmichael’s number and was put right through. The moment she answered, he hesitated, reminding himself of why this was a bad idea on so many levels. He and Poppy had a history—and not a good one. True, it was twenty years ago, but still… Through the front window, he saw his guests begin to pile out of the van. They were all wearing what appeared to be new matching navy winter jack­ets with an On the Fly logo on the back and match­ing stocking caps. They looked tired from the long trek from the airport up into the mountains outside of Whitefish, Montana. They also already looked hungry. “Poppy?” He cleared his voice. “It’s Will. Will Sterling. Up at the Sterling guest ranch.” “Will.” The sound of her voice threw him for a moment. It was soft, refined, his name spoken on almost an amused breath. He plunged on. “My cook, Buckshot Brewster, broke his leg and I’m desperate, as I have guests ar­riving as we speak. Is there any way—” Dorothea was shaking her head and mumbling again about bad luck and this whole retreat already being cursed. “How long?” Poppy said on the other end of the line. “Four days starting today, Sunday. The guests leave Wednesday afternoon. If there is any way you can fit it into your schedule…” A soft laugh. “So you need me.” There was a small hesitation before she said, “Right away.” “Yes! I have nine guests that have to be fed to­night. I’m sorry for such short notice. If you can swing it, I’ll pay your going rate and a bonus at the end of the four days. What do you say? Buckshot brought most of the supplies up already and my brothers just delivered the rest, so I think we have everything you’ll need to cook up here. We have our own supply of beef, bison and elk, and plenty of canned goods. We just need a…cook.” An amused chuckle. “I see.”
