Esther Smith had lost everything. Her husband, her farm, her livelihood, and her faith. All were gone in a short few months. With no family and too much pride to accept help, she decides that moving to Montana to marry a man who needs a wife is her only decent option.
Things seem off when she arrives, but she's so desperate she simply waits to see if her plan falls into place. John Matthews doesn't show much interest in her at all, which doesn't disturb her too badly since she doesn't want to fall in love. What she does want, however, is security. A husband is the way to get what she needs.
When the unthinkable happens, Esther has to take matters into her own hands. Her life is at stake and later she finds out that the life of her baby was also on the line. Will the kind woman who offers her respite be the help she's finally willing to accept?
