Coral has always been different than other young ladies and not just because of the circumstances of her birth. When her sister, Esther, moves west to Montana to be a mail order bride, she goes with her, hoping that she will quickly find a husband herself and not long be a burden on her sister and her new husband. She agrees to meet any of the men her brother-in-law finds suitable for her, hoping she will find a match and leave the newlyweds' home.
Jackson is new to the rural area of Montana where he is now teaching. When he's approached by one of the local ranchers to meet his younger sister-in-law, he goes along with it, because he realizes having a wife would make his life a great deal easier. Upon meeting Coral, he is initially put off by her bold manner, but he agrees to the match, and soon the couple is off to Lost Legacy to marry. Will he be able to get past Coral's boldness to see the woman within? Or will they spend the rest of their lives in a loveless marriage?
