Divorced by her wealthy husband, Brendon Dawson, for his former lover, Yolanda Mitchell, Christina Jones sheds her "dull housewife" persona. She transforms, revealing her hidden identity as "Chrissy," a legendary shooter (Rose), and wins a competition whose prize is treatment from the elusive doctor "King." Brendon and his family, needing King's help for Yolanda and later for his grandmother Bethel, try to coerce Christina into giving them the prize. Christina is kidnapped by Jacob Terrell, whom she previously injured, but is rescued by Dylan Scott, the competition host and Morfort Restaurant owner, who shows her unexpected care. Christina, secretly King, agrees to treat Dylan's ailing sister, Chloe. Brendon's grandmother, Bethel, collapses upon learning of the divorce. Christina agrees to a temporary pretense of reconciliation for Bethel's sake and wagers she can bring a top surgeon for Bethel, further fueling Brendon's jealousy and possessiveness.
