From the moment Cynthia Clarke arrived back in her hometown driving her sleek new sports car and wearing designer jeans, something about her set the handsome, Steve Layton into an emotional frenzy. To make matters worse Cynthia still appears to think of him as a penniless cowpoke. She hasn’t a clue that he was the lucky winner of the Texas lottery a few years ago and became an instant multi-millionaire. She innocently asks him to work for her, with pay of course. One kiss and they both were experiencing the same old emotions they had shared in high school, before Cynthia had fled from Texas. Romantic sparks fly as their attraction for each other grows. He sets out to win her back as a plain cowboy, not the multi-millionaire he has become. It’s imperative that she loves him and not his money. His plans are set back and almost ruined when his current lover, Beverly Hudson, causes scandal and shame by taking him to court for breaking off their alleged engagement. Once again Cynthia quickly flees. Proving yet again that Hell hath no fury like a woman’s scorn.
