Northern Central Texas, Late 1800's
At his mother's insistence, city-slicker Shane Morgan reluctantly leaves New York City for the wilds of Texas, searching for the daughter of his mother's best friend. A woman who, unbeknownst to her, is an heiress to a huge fortune.
Ellie Parker is the unwanted stepchild doing all the ranch work, while her mother dotes on her real daughter. She drowns her sorrows by running the ranch she loves, enjoying the company of ranch hands, horses, and cattle.
When a polished city slicker shows up and imposes himself upon her life, he refuses to be ignored. But when a lady of the evening, claiming to be Ellie's fairy godmother, along with her spoiled white cat, also intrudes at the same time the circus comes to town, it's all too much for Ellie.
Amid an atmosphere of deception and disbelief, Ellie finds herself falling in love with the totally inappropriate Shane Morgan. But can love find its way through the morass of truths Shane is forced to shroud?
