Innocent, naive Letty Mason moves from her Virginia home to Sweet Water on the western prairies to live on the ranch of her cousin Beverly, his wife Cora, and their three children. Letty quickly learns how inhospitable the environment in Sweet Water is, the most obvious item being the incessant wind. But equally inhospitable are the unrefined way the people in Sweet Water live, to which she is unaccustomed, and Cora, who believes Letty has come to steal Beverly from her. As such, Cora orders Letty out of her and Bev's house. With no money, Letty is forced to accept one of the marriage proposals she receives--from Bev and Cora's ranching neighbor Lige Hightower, whom she doesn't love. Despite a less-than-harmonious start, partly due to Letty's isolation as the wind too often forces her to stay inside, she starts to feel affection for Lige, who wants to do right by her and promises to send her back to Virginia when he is financially able. But a visitor who takes refuge in their house away from the wind threatens Letty's ultimate happiness.
