Plot

Marian (Barbara Stanwyck) and Ned (Phillip Reed) are scheduled to be married in two days, when Ned is killed by the husband of a woman with whom he was having an affair. Marian becomes withdrawn and is sent to the Canadian Rockies for rest. One day while walking in the mountains, she accidentally falls off a ledge and twists her ankle. She is discovered and rescued by Dan Forrester (Frank Morgan) and his dog Sandy. Dan visits Marian every day, even though she is still bitter about her fiancee's death. Before she leaves the mountains, Dan asks her to marry him and she accepts, knowing she will never truly love again.

Marian and Dan go back to Chicago, where Dan dotes on Marian, even building her a house in the country. Everything is going well until Marian meets a brash young transport owner named Frank (Ricardo Cortez). She rejects his advances, but he persists. When Dan leaves town on business, Frank entertains her every day, and Marian soon realizes that she may find love again after all.[1]
