Adrift for years since her partner's death and her son's estrangement, Lenny Barclay isn't sure what she wants. Her friends despair of cheering her up. Even making her mayor of their idyllic Colorado mountain town doesn't awaken the joyous, passionate Lenny they once knew. But the arrival of the corporate planners from the Wilderness Campaign brings back some of Lenny's fire. They already act like they own the place, including the arrogant Sloane McHenry.
