Christine Adams, a cheerful 19-year-old from British Columbia, Canada, travels to Los Angeles to be with her fiance, who works there in a bank.

She finds work as a showgirl and meets Tommy Marcott, an African-American former pro football player who holds an executive position at the casino, though in truth he is only used as a "celebrity greeter."

In that capacity she meets and is persuaded by wealthy client Richard Morgan to return to Los Angeles and be his mistress.

Christine is fond of Richard but she gets bored in her new life, so she becomes romantically involved with Jay Rigney, who she had previously known platonically.

[5] Tom Lisanti and Louis Paul state that "Bisset gave one of her finest performances, as a naïve woman who abandons her family for the glamour of Las Vegas".

[6] Shirley Halperin and Steve Bloom wrote that Bisset is "at the peak of her hotness here, and for some that might be enough to make this pseudofeminist classic worth the watch", adding that she "exudes both naivete and badassness as her character".
