Growing increasingly discontent with his charmed life back East, Edmund Johnston manages to slip away and start fresh along the wagon trail in Texas. He finds his calling in the small town of Rivertown, a place struggling to grow, and he's just the man to help it along. He soon establishes himself as the town's go-to man, someone to be reckoned with, and not someone you wanted to cross. Callie Foster has made a few bad decisions in her life, and is seeking to leave the scandal behind. She receives help from the last person she expected, the professor who had coldly expelled her from college for the mistakes she had made. When the professor offers her the position as teacher in the small western town of Rivertown, she gladly accepts, hoping it will allow her to start over. Edmund's instant attraction to Callie alarms him and he strives to create a barrier between them. Callie finds his manner off-putting. One moment, he's acting like he likes her, the next, he bites her head off! She refuses to be cowed by this rough western man, and goes toe-to-toe with him more than once. The town holds it breath, waiting for their next explosion. Little do they know, they will have to work together to overcome the obstacles their past has created for their future. Will the school teacher with the past be able to teach Edmund to look forward to the future?
