Caitlin Seeger is a 14-year-old girl who has been in and out of foster homes since her mother's sudden death when she was eight. Her father had left when she was four. Caitlin, still angry about her mother's death, hides her grief in her tough attitude which causes her to get into trouble frequently. She loves photography and is usually seen with her camera which once belonged to her mother. Her dream is to become a professional photographer. After getting in trouble and expelled from her Catholic school, Caitlin is given the option of going to a juvenile detention facility or going to live with her mother's cousin, Dori Lowe (whom Caitlin did not even know existed) her husband Jim and their son Griffen in Montana. Caitlin agrees to go to Montana. While there, Caitlin meets and rescues a stallion from wranglers whom she names Bandit. As time goes by, the Lowes and Caitlin learn to accept each other and Caitlin gets what she's always wanted for a long time: a loving family and a permanent home.
