Courtship of the Recluse is about a conservative and independent young woman who accepts a job as housekeeper for a stoic man known as a hermit to the townsfolk. The ranch is miles from town, in the middle of 3000 plus acres. Aside from the love of ranch life, to her the job is an ideal way to save money for a down payment on her own place. To him it is freedom from housework so he can work the ranch. But respect and admiration spawn a much deeper emotion - one that gets out of control in fuzzy stages that blend into each other. |
