An honest cowboy, Coy Bell is hired on with Walter Davis at his ranch outside Decatur, Texas. But Coy gets more than he bargains for on this job--he falls in love with his boss's wife, Laurel May. Realizing Laurel May returns his affections, Coy chooses honor over love and leaves the ranch. But, years later when Coy is accused of a horrible crime, he returns to clear his name--and he finds his only crime is loving a good woman.
