Young actress Anna Finnegan is plucked from obscurity in a St. Louis theater to play the lead in a Hollywood western. Shot on location in hardscrabble Redstone, Texas, the film is being sabotaged by an unknown person who has hired local criminals to set fires, steal, and create mayhem on the set. If that’s not enough excitement, Anna is also fending off advances from a lecherous costar and bullying from the other female lead. Off set, she manages to fall for the local blacksmith, Dalton Barnes, who is hardworking, handsome, fiercely proud, and not at all interested in the trappings of Hollywood. Dalton and Anna come up with a plan to expose the saboteur, save the movie, and live happily ever after. Set during the Prohibition era and replete with stereotypical Hollywood and western characters, the latest from romance doyenne Garlock mixes light suspense with traditional romance for an entertaining effect. --Aleksandra Walker
