Wild and beautiful, Gwyneth Johns is a Patagonian with a scandalous past that shocks the Victorian ladies of the small pioneering town in the Valdes Peninsular. She has sworn never to let any man get close, but her resolve is weakened by a handsome Spaniard, Miguel, who is not all he seems. Then, new immigrants arrive from the northeast of England. Gentle giant Rob, his younger brother, Davy, and the hard drinking, amoral Matt with his young wife, all of them arrive. Gwyneth is called upon to teach them how to be gauchos. Reluctantly, she accepts the challenge. Now she risks losing her life and newfound love to the cold glaciers of the Andes.
