No longer an Enforcer after a tragic accident left her disabled, Caitlyn Kiramman just wants to focus on winning the mounted shooting competition. But all her plans are derailed by the arrival of a brash new ranch hand. Vi gets a job at Heartland Ranch after their release from Stillwater prison, but the former Enforcer who lives there wants to make everything difficult for them. Until they start to bond over similar family trauma, and a horse named Jinx. *Arcane characters created by RIOT games and adapted for TV by Christian Linke and Alex Yee *Heartland written by Lauren Brooke and adapted for TV by CBC
