Land of Promise Love Blossoms in the Old West

Independent and strong-willed, Elizabeth Simmons eagerly jumps at the chance to get away from high society and go out west when an old family friend asks that she come to the Arizonia territory to care for his injured wife. It's a golden opportunity to make it on her own. When she's done helping out, she intends to use a small inheritance from her grandmother to open her own business. Soon after arriving she finds that the situation is quite different from what she's been lead to believe. Yes, the man's wife has been seriously injured but that's not why their dear family friend sent for her. It seems as though he's lost everything in a mining swindle and the only way to avoid ruin is to produce an eligible young lady of proper breeding to be married off to the son of a rather despicable political acquaintance. Refusing to go along with the idea, Elizabeth must truly find her own way after winding up penniless and homeless.
