With time running out, the ice cool cowboy with the movie star good looks tries to fix the situation he's got himself into and make it across the border to safety, Maddy in tow. As their destination beckons, will Maddy be able to admit to the feelings she begins to develop for him, and for the first time in her life, finally let herself go?
