Colby Lonigan was out rounding up stray cattle in dismal Crazy Woman Creek when he found her. She looked like she'd stepped off the pages of a fashion magazine, except she was dirty, disheveled, injured, missing a shoe, and her memories. Not knowing what else to do, he takes her back to his ranch. It must be the Christmas spirit to make him offer for her to stay indefinitely.

Faith adopted the name Colby gave her because she didn't know her own. Or anything else about herself. As she stayed on at the ranch, she fell under the spell of Colby's sweet little daughter and learned the ranching life. And the romance between her and Colby grew. But first she needed to find out who she was and why she had a pale white circle around her left ring finger.

When Colby's ex-in-laws sue for custody of his precious daughter, at Christmastime, Faith agrees to stay and fight with him, hoping she hasn't left a child of her own somewhere out in Crazy Woman Creek.
