Nina and Wolf are getting ready to celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary. For them, time has only strengthened their love and confirmed their belief of past lives together.
Laine and Takota, their two sons, are attending college in Bozeman and will be attending the joyous celebration. They are proud of the Lakota Sioux blood of their father that shows in their faces.
Things on the family bison ranch in Red Lodge, Montana, have settled to a new normal. But, out of nowhere, disaster strikes the herd, and the family must pull together to find their unknown enemy.
As they try to solve the mystery, Laine, their oldest, believes he is in love with a woman who is the opposite of what the family expects or needs. He must decide his path. Will he choose family and the Lakota Sioux way of life and values he was raised with, or will he follow the burning emotional passion he feels for a woman who wants nothing to do with it?
