She accepts a job as a teacher in Dogtown, Colorado where the man who hired her thinks she is a woman of 'mature years.'Mitch Beaumont is tired of young women who come to Dogtown and leave in tears because it is not a built up city with entertainment a young woman would want. He has finally secured a teacher for the town who has assured him she is a middle aged spinster, and will be able to last through the hard winters.Then twenty-year-old Priscilla steps off the mail coach and falls at his feet in the mud.
