When plain twentieth-century librarian Jane Baker dies accidentally, her spirit guide attempts to send her back to earth. Unfortunately he bungles it and transports her to the Wild West of 1890 instead -- and straight into the arms of a dangerously attractive bounty hunter.

Rugged Dolan Kincaid mistakes Jane for a notorious gambler who is wanted for cold-blooded murder. He's got big plans for the clever little lady, if she'll only stop playing confused and helpless long enough to 'fess up to who she really is!
