When “Big Tim” Creighton spies the mincing fop headed for Forsaken Ranch, he is appalled. Thankful his boss isn’t around to witness the arrival of his kin, Tim decides he’ll turn “Fancy Pants” Hathwell into a man worth of respect.

Lady Sydney Hathwell to don men’s attire, but when her uncle mistakenly assumed she was a male, the answer to her problems seemed clear. Her disguise as “Syd” was meant to be temporary…but the arranged married she’s fleeing, her uncle’s attitude toward the fairer sex – and her own pride – compel her to continue the guise far longer than she had planned.

When her deception is exposed, will she be forced to abandon her hopes for family…and true love?
