description: After a stint teaching in stuffy boarding schools schoolteacher Zebadiah Kaine is delighted to find a school that allows freedom for both his love of nature and his unconventional teaching methods. Even if his family does think he's mad for moving to the Montana territory.When he meets gorgeous but rude bookkeeper Ren Wellington Zeb is shocked that such a small man can have such nerve but as he and Ren are repeatedly thrown together in the cramped society of Bedford Creek Zeb's annoyance is replaced by maddening temptation.Ren Wellington's bookkeeping certificate is no more real than his last name. (He knows a very talented forger). Luckily the Montana wilderness is the perfect place for a former swindler to settle into anonymity. Having spent his childhood in orphanages and brothels Ren doesn't make a habit of forming attachments but when he takes wholesome kind-hearted Zeb as his lover he quickly learns Zeb isn't the sort of person he can keep at arm's length.To find their happily ever after they'll have to contend with a matchmaking matron a greedy railroad baron from Ren's past and their own deeply rooted convictions on love and morality.
