When Holly returns to the B-Bar-B ranch after her father's stroke, she learns some hard truths. Her father has been funding her carefree jet-set lifestyle for years with the ranch's profits, leaving the B-Bar-B on the brink of bankruptcy. Now she's desperate to make amends by rescuing the failing ranch and making sure her father has a home to return to when he leaves rehab.

Cody, who helps his brothers run the nearby Rocking F, agrees reluctantly when his grandfather volunteers him to give Holly a hand. When he gets to the B-Bar-B, he's shocked at the condition of the place. Even worse, Holly doesn't know a steer from a milk cow and doesn't have a clue how to put things right.

As Cody works closely with Holly, his opinion of her changes. Holly shows she understands her failings and is committed to making the B-Bar-B profitable again for her father. As they work together, the once reluctant cowboy realizes he wants a different kind of partnership with Holly. But can the one-time world traveler ever be happy with small town living in Wildcat Creek?
