In the wake of the collapse of her father’s business empire, Flor, the gorgeous
twenty-one year-old daughter of disgraced former Brazillionaire Gustavo de
Lima, is forced to forge her own path in life. Flor decides that none of it—the
private jets, the vacation homes and the luxury cars—were real. Or at least
they really didn’t matter. The only thing that’s real for Flor is her love of
horses and her desire to go to veterinary school. Heading into her final year
of college, Flor seeks out the help of an unlikely benefactor to secure a
summer internship working with horses. Arriving at the secluded Belo Horizonte
ranch, Flor is awed not only by the majestic beauty of the place, but also by
handsome cowboy and skilled horse trainer, Collin Taylor. Yet nothing is quite
as it appears on the surface. When the hidden past is revealed, will love end
up blossoming for Flor?
Camila Cohen is a highly ambitious and driven third-year NYU law student who works as a part-time bartender to help pay her way through school. She prefers no-strings attached relationships, afraid that anything serious could get in the way of her goals. But when chef Eliseo Perez ditches her for a job in Miami, she realizes even a casual arrangement can leave you feeling burned. Just as Camila’s close to accepting a position at the high-powered law firm of Sullivan & Moore (more appropriately known by its initials, S & M), her uncle Arthur, the head of the Cohen Real Estate dynasty, makes a proposal that compels Camila to question the career path she’d always assumed would be right for her. As she attempts to balance her busy final year of law school with her bartending job, what should have been a random Tinder date for a hot hook-up leads to something unexpected. Meeting the incredibly brilliant and handsome Marshall James forces Camila to face her greatest fears and realize that creating a life for herself means making decisions that could potentially hurt the ones she loves.
