The Bad Penny

The Kincaid Ranch, near Red Horse, Wyoming...

Ethan Kincaid -- He's got a rough-and-ready sense of justice; he's a man who makes his own rules, a rancher who wears his authority with confidence. He's a widower and a loner -- and the loving father of a five-year-old girl.

Maggie Deaton -- She's a rancher born and bred -- but a rancher without a ranch. Framed by her stepbrother and convicted of livestock theft, she's spent the past two years in jail.

Maggie arrives on the Kincaid Ranch because she's been promised a job -- a job that may not materialize. Not surprisingly, Ethan doesn't want a convicted cattle rustler working there. He also makes it clear that he doesn't want a woman as attractive and appealing as Maggie anywhere near him!

Hero: Ethan Kincaid
Heroine: Maggie Deaton
