Ash Morgan, known to the townsfolk as The Marrying Man, is in dire need of a wife, but he doesn't know that. He thinks he and his tomboy daughter, Addie, are just fine without a woman around. His meddling uncle, Zeke, though, has taken it upon himself to remedy the situation. Unknown to Ash, Uncle Zeke has contacted the respectable Miss Cartwright's finishing school in Philadelphia and the perfect woman is on her way to marry Ash. This doesn't necessarily sit well with him, but when he meets Sarah Jane Parker at the train station, the wickedly beautiful Sarah Jane Parker, Ash thinks he may just give this a shot. They're married almost immediately and return to the Morgan house to deal with the wild Addie. Sarah Jane is not exactly who Ash thinks she is, at least not strictly speaking. Running away from the finishing school that she's called a prison for six years, Sarah Jane did a little illegal maneuvering with the correspondence from Zeke. Now she finds herself the wife of a man who has been widowed twice, is the owner of a large coal mine and has a daughter who is more like a boy than a little girl. This plan isn't exactly what she had in mind, but she is rather taken with her handsome new husband. Taking a deep breath, the indomitable Sarah Jane leaps into marriage and motherhood with the same reckless abandon she has dealt with everything else in her life.
