On the night before her forced marriage to Harry Curt in Boston, Vesper Darnell flees to Denver with a trunk of clothing and her mother’s cherished violin. After securing lodging at Broad Street Boarding House, she plays at the concerts her new agent has arranged. When she asks for payment from the venue, she learns her manager has taken the money and disappeared. The president of the Physician’s Association notifies Dr. Louis Glenn that he has sixty days to marry or face expulsion from the organization. From his Palmer House window, a violin solo catches the ear of the young doctor. When he meets and learns of Vesper’s situation, he works hard to find places for her to perform. Vesper enjoys her new-found freedom and musical career in Colorado Territory. The relationship between the good doctor and the violinist soars to a crescendo until Harry Curt arrives in town looking for Vesper. Is Vesper forced into marriage against her will? Will the Physician’s Association allow Dr. Glenn more time to find a suitable wife?
