Working as a biscuit-shooter, Nell falls for a cowboy named Buddy. She sees a future together, but she cant help wondering if his feelings for her are true. When Buddy breaks her heart, she runs away. In her search for a soul mate, Nell will run away from marriage twice more before finding the love of her life.
