Louis, the distinguished European Crown Prince, finds his life hanging by a thread after a coup forces him to flee, leaving him stranded in the Texas wilderness amidst a torrential storm. He is rescued by Luke—a hot-blooded, hot-tempered rancher who once took out five assassins with five precise headshots. To save Luke’s "Morning Star Ranch" from a predatory energy conglomerate, the two seize an opportunity to exploit a legal loophole and enter into a "contractual same-sex marriage."
From fighting side-by-side against elite assassins to dismantling the treacherous political schemes of the European royal court, the tension—both fateful and sexual—skyrockets. When his icy, elegant fiancée arrives to drag him back to the European elite and the throne, the strategic Crown Prince turns his back on all that power, choosing instead to wear a rough horseshoe-shaped wedding band—hand-crafted by the cowboy himself.
