When Eastern society girl Beatrice “Trix” Lansell arrives in Montana for a visit with her brother, she is swept off her feet by the majestic, rugged beauty of the land, by the simplicity and satisfaction of ranch life, and by a handsome cowboy named Keith Cameron. But Keith seems to be immune to Trix’s charms, and as a woman used to having young men eating out of the palm of her hand, Trix is a bit put out.
As a beautiful prairie summer stretches out before her, Trix is determined to experience everything life on the range has to offer. Amidst a glorious season of hard work and play, Trix finds herself falling in love with the land . . . and with Keith Cameron. Piqued by her growing attraction to him and his continued indifference, and despite the disapproval of her mother and a would-be suitor, Trix becomes determined to make Keith fall in love with her and teach him a lesson about women in the process. But Keith has plans of his own—to teach Trix a lesson about life, and what it really means to love someone...
Written in 1906, Her Prairie Knight was one of the first novels by B.M. Bower, the first woman to find success as a western writer. Bower drew from her own experiences as a homesteader in Montana to craft this smart and sweet love story, set against a beautiful untamed landscape rife with dangers and hardship, but also filled with pride and determination, laughter and song, and of course, true love.
