Ruby Buxton was a plain wallflower but she fell in love with Frank Buxton and they married. They had acquired a Kansas Land Grant and Frank was working the property during the day and working nights at the saw mill to keep up with the mortgage payments. It became too much and one evening Frank passed away. Ruby was lost and had no idea how she was going to keep up the land and make the mortgage payments without her husband. One day a kind stranger happened by and offered to do some work in exchange for a meal. Ruby invited him to stay on as a hired hand for food and a place to sleep in the barn. It didn't take long before the two of them became very close. Ruby had also become quite the shot with her husband's rifle and found that animal pelts to make vests and mufflers paid better than scrubbing and mending other people's clothes. Life was looking up for Ruby and Isaac until a band of outlaws showed up on their doorstep. There was one thing that Ruby did not know about her beloved Isaac and that was his true identity. Would she be able to save Isaac not knowing the truth about his past and was their love strong enough to overcome the obstacles along the way? One thing Ruby knew for sure was that she was not going to let the man she loved die without a fight. She had lost Frank and she was not going to lose Isaac without a battle.
