Dani Williams has been drifting with her father all her life, raising and racing horses. Her father has raised a champion racehorse, Rogue, and she is obsessed with the idea that wealthy Barrett King is out to get Rogue and shouldn't be allowed to have him. Later, when Rogue is injured and has to be put down she blames it all on Barrett for no discernable reason.

There is no real answer for why she hates him. I suppose it is because she actually likes him. I just don't know. Barrett himself seems like a nice gentleman --- even paying a hospital bill for the penniless Dani when her father runs out on her (thinking it's for her own good). Dani becomes a model and Barrett continues to try and look out for her and eventually the start a relationship.
