For most first time females they don't want to breed. It's perfectly normal for her to acting that way. Although it is frustrating, believe me, I know. What always seems to work for me is putting the female with the male and if she isn't willing taking her out and checking her vent about 4 to 6 hours later. If it's swollen and red, she is probably ready to be bred.
However, is there another time she could have gotten to him and already be pregnant? That may also be why she doesn't want anything to do with him.

Hey, after having patience with them both, the buck managed to be successful a couple times. although the doe still wasn't happy with him
