Leo Watkins is an ill-tempered widower with a busy smithy to run and no desire to adhere to silly niceties. He likes his life just the way it is and doesn't care what other people think. But when his son convinces him it's time to remarry, Leo needs a crash course in wooing a bride.

Leo doesn't know what to do about the infuriating yet intoxicating widow. She's bossy, uptight, and.beautiful. And she makes him feel things he thought long buried. Falling for Leo isn't in Missy's plans; he's ornery, stubborn, and entirely too handsome. So why does his presence make her weak, and why does his touch make her yearn for something more?When these two opposing spirits are offered a second chance at what they've lost, will they find love, or will their hearts shatter to pieces?
