When Nancy Wilson, a physical therapist, meets new patient Mitchell Robbins, their attraction is immediate. Mitchell is a rancher and rodeo contestant. Nancy had grown up on a ranch in western Nebraska, which was sold after her father's death. The handsome cowboy rekindles Nancy's longing for the open skies of ranchland again. However, the therapist-patient relationship prevents a closer connection.

But a serendipitous meeting with Nancy's brother on a flight sparks Mitchell's decision to pursue Nancy and make her his. Mitchell's duties on the ranch and Nancy's job in the city sometimes keeps the couple apart. A longtime neighbor and a new colleague try to steal Mitchell's and Nancy's hearts. But their love prevails and Mitchell takes Nancy back to a new beginning on a Nebraska ranch-with him.
