When impetuous, courageous Shelby Matthews moves to Cody, Wyoming to manage her father’s new ranch, she plots an outrageous scheme to raise funds for improvements by playing poker. Meanwhile, dashing Geoffrey Weston, Marquess of Sandhurst, travels from London to Wyoming for one last adventure before he submits to an arranged marriage to save the family estates.
The moment Geoff steps off the train in Cody, Shelby thinks she's found an easy mark for her poker game. However, the British nobleman quickly wins half her ranch and has no intention of letting her out of the bet. It’s the beginning of a magical, impossible romance that takes the couple across the sea to England, where Shelby performs with Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show and Geoff, now a Duke, wrestles with conflicts between duty and the painful longings of his heart.
