When cowboy Sterling Jordan heads from his home in Aspen to Durango, Colorado, hes looking for his sisters baby, and he intends to take that child home with him, no matter what the situation is. Then he meets his nephews adoptive father, Benjamin Collier, and Benji is the last thing he expects. So he just holds off on telling Ben who he is.

When Ben discovers that Sterling has been omitting some very important parts of his history, hes furious, but he has to admit that Sterling never out and out lied to him, and that the big name, big money cowboy is absolutely fascinating. Hes willing to let Sterling get to know his son, Xavier, but not to let the man have him, so they have to find a compromise.

The two men navigate siblings, parents, and the bad start to their relationship to find a way to be a whole new kind of family, one where silver linings come with buckles and baby blankets.
