Young widow Jane Withersteen finds herself alone on the frontier, struggling to keep her ranch going. Although Jane is plucky and independent, her community believes that what she really needs is a man to help her tend her land. When she boldly refuses to marry a deacon, the local clergymen turn on her…and begin threatening to steal her land out from under her.

Jane doesn’t know much about him, but she thinks he may be the only one who can help her keep her home and ranch from being stolen. As for Jim, he rides from town to town searching for the man who drove his sister to commit suicide. When he saw local thugs harassing Jane, he felt compelled to step in and save her. While he does it out of a strong sense of compassion, he soon begins to suspect that a member of this community may be the man he’s been searching for.
