    内容简介

    On a whim, while working on the television series Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman, Sara Davidson flies to Elko, Nevada, for a cowboy poetry festival. She has a chance meeting with an attractive, green-eyed cowboy from Arizona who makes bridles out of rawhide. At first she dismisses him as a jerk, an "insolent yokel," but months later, feeling at loose ends, she calls and invites him to visit for a weekenda weekend that alters the course of both their lives. Having a fling with a cowboy is a common female fantasy, but for Sara and Zack the sexual fling deepens and intensifies. They try to resist it because they seem completely wrong for each other s and don t fit into each other s lives. Sara writes books and television shows, studied at Berkley and Columbia and lives in a suburb with her two young children. Zack barely finished high school, doesn t read the newspaper and lives in a trailer in the desert. Yet after several weeks apart, they re compelled to see each other again.Sara s children are charmed at first by the visiting cowboy, but when they realize he s going to stay around, they react with anger and vulnerability. Sara s friends and colleagues are skeptical, and she s forced to adjust her own ideas about who s a suitable partner."The affair has endured," she writes, "and it has taught me things I did not know about love, the body and the heart, the way we link ourselves to people who may not be politically or socially or in any way correct."Sara faces a classic struggle between the mind and the heart, the worldly and the timeless, and between one s loyalty and devotion to children and one s physical needs as a woman. She understands she must find a way to yoke these conflicting needs or be grateful for the romantic interlude and walk ahead on her own.
