When Wade Middleton meets wealthy Diana Buchanan, a beautiful horsewoman relocating to Palo Alto, California, from Texas, he is introduced to the exhilarating world of horses and fox-hunting, and a whirlwind romance spins out of control. Talk about a culture clash. Problems arise in the relationship when Diana cannot let go of her high-horse lifestyle, nor disengage from her powerful husband. Wade's love of poetry isn't exactly embraced by Diana, either, and they are worlds apart. Yet for some reason, the two are saddled by an attraction to each other neither understands. ​            Wade learns to jump fences so he can ride behind the hounds with her. But he loses his passion for the sport one morning when he and Diana watch the hounds eviscerate a wild boar.Add to this Wade’s frustrations as he tries to help his friend Jorge when he needs it most, and the guilt that ensues from his having the hots for his friend's wife, a desire he admirably suppresses to an extent, and you have the makings of trouble. Wade has his own demons to wrestle down, but he is unprepared for the tragedy to come.
