Neilly Reid finds herself swindled into pushing paper in a crooked public works department. She can handle the bureaucracy, a bit of white-collar crime, and the dim-witted local police, but things get dicey when she catches feelings for Jesse Root, the bag man for the small-town mob.
From the Ken’s Corner parking lot, Jesse is scheming to win a seat in the provincial legislature. He needs Neilly by his side to sanitize his image while he juggles the demands of the mobster who runs the seedy underbelly of this postcard-perfect town from the seat of his snowplow.

The story starts off with Lee looking for work as a blacksmith and he is trapped by a winter storm, away from his home and his new wife. When he witnesses a young girl being orphaned by senseless violence, Lee has no choice but to don the sheriff badge. He’s not afraid of criminals or corruption, but he dreads breaking the news to his no-nonsense young wife Victoria.
