Johnny Paynter flees Denver to escape being hanged for a murder he didn't commit. At his brother's ranch in Texas, where he thought he could take refuge, he finds his brother, Mark, dead at the hands of rogue bandits. Taking advantage of his strong resemblance to his brother, Johnny assumes Mark's identity. Johnny soon discovers that Mark has been corresponding with a widow named Sally in St. Louis, and she is en route to be a mail-order bride to Mark. Seeing no other option, Johnny makes a fateful decision to go through with the wedding, posing as his brother. With such deception between the two newlyweds, and the possible return of Mark's murderers, can they eventually find love?
