Nineteen year old pioneer woman Marty has recently married. She goes west with her husband Clem, hoping to start a new life.

Widower Clark offers her a marriage of convenience: she needs food and money, and he needs someone to take care of his daughter Missie. She accepts his proposal as a temporary solution.
