Bent River Ranch, near Tulsa, Oklahoma. Anna Andrews-A woman who's trying to make it in a man's world. Thanks to her brother's foolishness, she finds herself begging Dusty Dare to hire her. Dusty Dare-Half-Cherokee and proud of it. Owner of one of the most successful cutting-horse ranches in Oklahoma. When his stable manager runs off, he's forced to hire Anna, but he isn't thrilled about it. Anna knows that training horses for this man, no matter how good he looks in chaps and a cowboy hat-or traditional Cherokee dress-won't be easy. Especially when Dusty dare thinks she's wrong for the job. The wrong sex, that is!
