Otis Young tried the same dating app that led his younger brother to happily-ever-after. Too bad it didn't work out for him. He returns to Coral Canyon with his brothers as they prepare to record their next album, his heart in shreds and his plans for the future in tatters. All he knows is he needs the support of his family, and they've always welcomed him with open arms.

Georgia Beck owns the bookshop in downtown Coral Canyon, and she knows the Young family well. After all, one of her best friends is the librarian, and Abby just married Otis's brother, Tex. When her ex-boyfriend keeps coming round the shop, trying to get her back, she needs a convincing reason for him to leave her alone. That reason is a new boyfriend, and the only person in the shop at the time is Otis Young. He's always keen to help a woman in distress, but he wasn't expecting a fake kiss to spark something very real inside his wounded heart. The more he visits the bookshop—his daughter really loves to read—the more he and Georgia realize how much they have in common.

Otis has a lot of healing to do, what with his daughter living with him full-time now and no rose-colored glasses in sight when it comes to finding a soulmate. Can Georgia show Otis that love can heal all wounds and convince the stand-offish cowboy that she won't hurt him?
