After the death of their mother, the girls' lives change forever. Lou returns home from her high-powered job in New York to take over the business of the ranch.

Thrown into this mix is Ty, the hunky new stable boy; Mallory, the 12-year-old kid next door who never goes home; Scott, the local vet who had a thing for Lou back in high school; and Tim, the girls' estranged father, who has returned to Hudson and wants to reconnect with his family but doesn't know how.
