Plucky Ivy Feagan is headed to Turnabout, Texas, to claim an inheritance, not a widower's heart. That all changes when strapping schoolteacher Mitch Parker rescues her in the wilderness. Straightlaced Mitch has never met a woman like Ivy--beautiful, adventurous and good-hearted--but he already lost love once and doesn't dare try again. When Turnabout's gossips target Mitch and Ivy's friendship, he proposes to save her reputation. But Ivy doesn't want to marry for honor, and she does not need to marry for money. Ivy will only agree to a proposal made for love's sake--but will Mitch make his heart part of the marriage offer?
