Oklahoma saddle bronc champion Lamont Fortune lives a lonely life. He has a family he doesn't see very often, and although he was once a man of faith, his has faded. He's late getting out on the circuit this year, but before he can put his spurs on for the season, his life changes when he takes in a neighbor's stepson after a fatal overdose. When the boy's aunt arrives from New York City, it's complicated. Matilda Mannheim and Lamont bristle, but when they learn Shayne can't leave the state, Lamont is the only option. Lamont nicknames her 'Tilly,' and both realize they misjudged the other. With many challenges looming, Tilly has the faith he lacks. As he takes tentative steps toward God, he resists prayer until everything changes. His chance to build a life with Shayne and Tilly depends on whether he can make the right choices and, most of all if he can manage a prayer.
