A Cowboy’s Destiny
A young cowboy’s dream of being the best at a world-famous ranch is tested by something he never expected; his love for a married woman.
In 1917, 19-year-old Charlie Kelly lives with his family working a ranch outside Fort Sumner, New Mexico. But Charlie is tired of fixing everyone’s problems, especially the ones his father creates. Charlie wants to become a ‘top hand’ at the world-famous Miller 101 Ranch in northern Oklahoma. When his father shoots a man in Fort Sumner, forcing the Kelly family to leave New Mexico, Charlie decides the time is right to head out on his own.
But the road to becoming a cowboy at the 101 Ranch takes many twists and turns, and Charlie encounters a major detour when he meets Susan. She captures his heart, despite being married, and Charlie soon finds that his plan faces major conflicts that forces Charlie to make some tough decisions. Through it all Charlie struggles to fulfill his destiny.
