In a life-altering moment, she went from spare to heir. As future queen of the Andrastian Islands, Marielle takes her role and responsibility seriously. Fate lands her in a small Texas town, and a cowboy with work-worn hands, a cashmere voice, and piercing blue eyes sits beside her in a bar.

After a lifetime of living in the shadow of his twin, Sullivan finally has his life on track, tackling his horse breeding business with renewed vigor and precise plans. While visiting a friend, he sits next to a woman with a ramrod straight back, a delectable ass, and a cascade of chestnut hair.

Their connection is instant, but no matter how they slice and dice the situation they find themselves in, an undeniable fact remains — she will return to her world, and he will remain in his.

Or will they listen to their hearts and answer the call of love?
