Description
Conrad Bradley is a troubled soul. He has entered a deep depression. His wife and best friend of twenty years has died. Consumed by grief and self-pity, he is well started on his way to drinking himself to death. At the height of his depression his best friend is able to pressure him into tagging along to a horse auction in Oklahoma. On a whim, Connie buys a fancy little cutting horse from an old man from Montana. He intends to give the horse to his friend.
Foaled on the same day Connie's wife died, Smokin' Jolena is no ordinary horse. She comes with strings attached. Pete Browning, the old man who raised and trained her, is able to convince Connie he needs to learn to ride the horse in competition. Pete wants the little mare to go to the National Cutting Horse Futurity held in Fort Worth, Texas. In order to do that Connie must move to Pete's ranch in Montana. Connie initially resists, but finally decides anything that will get him over his grief is worth a try.
When Connie arrives at Pete's place in Kalispell, he quickly becomes involved in the daily workings of Pete's family. It's a completely different life style for him as he learns to ride Jolena. He also has to adapt to Pete's daughter, Cally, her twin daughters, Lindsey and Danni, and Woody, the retired sheepherder who lives with them. After a shaky start he begins to appreciate his new way of life and the people he meets.
