"When Trisha Terrence meets wheelchair bound Kaliq Faulkner she is immediately drawn towards the sexy and charismatic man. Kaliq's legs were crushed while he was performing his job as a foreign correspondent and trapped behind enemy lines. Despite Kaliq's handicap, he still exhudes a strong and vibrant personality. Trisha discovers that Kaliq lives in Wyoming, is a falconer and runs a small camp for kids. Trisha is working full-time with her partner, Guy, to fulfill her lifelong dream of owning and operating her own bed and breakfast. As a Paris trained chef, Trisha has dreamed of this opportunity her entire life. Although Trisha and Kaliq have fallen in love, neither one of them is able to bend to the other with regards to their dreams and obligations. Kaliq needs to be in Wyoming to run his kid's camp while Trisha is working towards opening her bed and breakfast in Pennsylvania. Tearfully, the two lovers separate. It is four years later and Trisha's partner Guy informs her that he has gambled away their bed and breakfast. Distraught by the news, Trisha is even more devastated when Guy is murdered. Trisha discovers that a man from her past named Rommel holds Guy's markers and is threatening to buy Trisha's bed and breakfast. Years ago, Trisha crossed paths with Rommel, who desperately wanted Trisha to come work for him. Although Trisha refused Rommel's offer, the man has always carried a torch for her. Trisha senses that Rommel's interest in her bed and breakfast isn't solely a business transaction. After Guy's murder Trisha receives an invitation from Kaliq to stay at his ranch in Wyoming. Mutual friends of Trisha and Kaliq informed Kaliq of Trisha's troubles and the fact that her life was in danger. Trisha gratefully accepts Kaliq's offer and travels to Wyoming to live on Kaliq's ranch. Immediately, the sparks begin flying between Trisha and Kaliq as they are living in close quarters. Trisha loves the grandeur of Wyoming and the Western style of living. It isn't long before Trisha realizes that she never stopped loving Kaliq. Trisha wonders if Kaliq still harbors any feelings for her, other than pity over her current situation. As Kaliq and Trisha start to mend their past differences, danger lurks in the shadows, waiting to strike out at the couple."
