In 1875 women don’t have many choices, but when Cadence’s neighbors, Betty and Frank, insist she marry their grandson, Richard, she’s desperate enough to climb down the trellis and head down to the train station, buy a ticket, and leave the only life she has known behind to join her sister, McKenna, in Silver, Nevada. She never gets the chance to go anywhere though when Bret Winters, the brother of McKenna’s husband, Cole, shows up and before long Frank arrives and insists they marry to save her family’s good name. Cadence goes along with it, but what other choice does she have and will Bret ever forgive her?
