Boots Left by the Door: Some Goodbyes Are Just Beginnings

After a bitter divorce and too many years chasing rodeo dreams, Jake Carson returns to his family ranch with one goal—to rebuild his broken bond with his teenage daughter, Emma. But the home he left behind holds more than just old regrets. It also holds Lily Harper, his high school sweetheart, now running the town’s beloved general store and carrying her own unspoken scars.

Emma isn’t ready to trust the father who left, and Lily isn’t sure she can risk her heart again. As Jake struggles to prove he’s truly home to stay, unexpected moments of connection spark between them—quiet gestures, laughter shared beneath the stars, and a dance that stirs feelings neither can ignore.

But when ghosts from the past threaten the fragile peace they’ve built, Jake must fight to protect the second chance he’s been given—before it slips away once more.

Can a cowboy who's lost it all show the people he loves that this time, he's here for good?
