Foreign Facades - Dj Fronimos

Résumé :
Classy but somewhat na?ve, Gweneth Worthington is horrified when she walks in on a drug deal gone bad while searching for her partner. As a witness to the murder of a notorious gang member, Gwen fears for her life and flees Chicago. To the city girl, taking an office job on a remote guest ranch in Texas seems the perfect way to hide out with her new identity. Reality sets in when her feisty boss has Gwen, now going by Nicole, scrubbing toilets and making beds on top of her other duties. Jesse Garcia struggles with survivor guilt after losing her partner in a skiing accident. Holed up in her mom's spare room, she barely makes it through each day. The chance to escape Germany and her memories brings her to Texas, where her mother's friend owns a ranch. Shoveling horse manure in exchange for her room and board forces Jesse outside, and she slowly begins to heal, especially once she bonds with one of the horses. Still, Jesse is no joy to be around, and Nicole's life becomes even more challenging when she is forced to room with her. Jesse has this uncanny ability to make her feel foolish, yet Nicole can't help it, she falls for her. Just when she suspects the feeling may be mutual, a revelation from Jesse's past shatters that illusion. Can Jesse make a fresh start in time to stop Nicole from abandoning her cowgirl fa?ade and running back to the city?
