Greta Nilsson's journey west to save her ailing sister, Astrid, was plagued with misfortune from the start. First, her stagecoach was held up by bandits, leaving her with nothing but her clothes. Upon arriving in Fairplay, Colorado, she discovered that the man she had been betrothed to through a mail-order bride service had passed away. Now homeless, penniless, and jobless, Greta and her sister were in an even worse situation than before.

Wyatt McQuaid, a struggling rancher, was in town to purchase cattle when the mayor presented him with an unexpected proposition. The mayor offered to invest in a herd of cattle for Wyatt's ranch if Wyatt agreed to help the town become more respectable by marrying and starting a family. The mayor, who had promised to assist Greta, had a particular candidate in mind for Wyatt to marry.

Despite the daunting challenges, Greta and Wyatt found themselves drawn to each other. They began to develop feelings for each other, and soon, they were engaged in a whirlwind romance. However, their happiness was short-lived when Astrid's condition worsened, and Greta was forced to return home to care for her sister.

Determined to make things right, Greta and Wyatt devised a plan to bring Astrid to Colorado and start a new life together. They worked tirelessly to save enough money to make the trip, and finally, they were able to bring Astrid to Fairplay.

With the help of the townspeople, Greta and Wyatt were able to establish a new ranch and start a family. They were grateful for the second chance they had been given and worked hard to make their dreams a reality.

In the end, Greta and Wyatt's journey west was filled with hardship and adversity, but it also brought them closer together and taught them the true meaning of love and perseverance.
