The one room schoolhouse isn't big enough to hold thirty-four students, let alone the egos of two teachers. He can't afford to lose the position, and she refuses to lose her heart.

Washington, 1891

She's running from rejection and disgrace.
Humiliated after her broken engagement, Claire Montgomery flees her comfortable life in San Francisco for a teaching position in Pine Creek, Washington, a dot of a town nestled in the rugged Cascade Mountains. She's determined to succeed-for once in her life-only to discover, upon her arrival, that success will have to be won. Thanks to a school board error, two teachers have been hired.

Scandal has him looking for a new start.
When scandal forces professor Barrett Clarke from his position as a college professor, he returns to Pine Creek where his uncle, chairman of the school board, sets forth an irresistible offer: teach one year in return for ranchland. For this would-be rancher, nothing is more tempting than resurrecting his childhood dream, and nothing can deter him from earning that land. Except perhaps Claire Montgomery. Losing the battle for the classroom means losing the ranchland, but winning may mean losing Claire's heart.

Someone will win something; the question is who? And What?
