Artie thought that hiding out in the mountains at her Granni Bee's place would make her invisible to the money-laden enemies who wanted to make her a scientific guinea pig and help her forget Caleb Campbell, the handsome veterinarian who'd broken her heart. But discovering that her Colorado ranch bordered his only brought her heartache to the forefront again. When Caleb disappears the day after Artie almost gets her lusty wish, Artie and Caleb's brother Corey embark on a poorly thought-out plan with an unlikely array of allies to find the missing heartthrob and bring him home safely. But when a horse, a grizzly bear, a cougar, and a rat go to war, there's no telling who will survive. And when the military gets involved, things really get hairy . . . and feathery . . . and scaly . . . and downright messy. As more and more powerful enemies try to capture Artie for the personalities who reside between her ears, only hoof and fang can pull her out of the fire. But can Artie save Caleb, her life, and her heart in the process?
