Bounty-hunter Chantal Worthington prefers to keep her work separate from her upper crust social life though the heiress knows that cannot always be possible. Her latest skipper to chase down is a case in point. Her target wealthy Marcus Willowby heir to Willowby Whiskey fortune was arrested for raping his dates; a decade ago he got away with raping her friend Belinda Carlyle. The evidence is overwhelming as Marcus videoed his predatory activity so he skipped the state of Missouri. Chantal vows to bring the predator to justice.

Bounty Hunter "Crazy" Luke Coleman is on the trail of the jumper and refuses to allow a claim jumper steal his case especially someone in designer heels. They both realize that Marcus is in Mexico so they head south battling one another every step of the way.

Chantal is a strange mix as a socialite bounty hunter who always gets her man. The story line is amusing as Chantal and Crazy Luke (not the wrestler) battle one another from the first moment they clash over who was bringing in a skipper and never slow down until the final lip lock confrontation. Though overall humorous the glimpse at what rape has done to a victim is handled deftly and compassionately. Carla Cassidy provides an entertaining battle of the sexes with the bounty being love.
