In the heat of the southwest, desire is the kindling for two lost souls and the flame of passion threatens to consume them both. Rosie Salady needs to get married and she needs to do it fast. The young widow needs help minding her Arizona Ranch, but no decent woman can live alone with a hired hand. And with the wealthy Wesley Morris making a play for her land, she needs to find a husband or risk losing everything. She makes a sign and hangs it in the local saloon: Husband wanted. Apply inside. Must be decent, honest, hardworking, and good with a gun. No conjugal rights. Delmar Grant is a sucker for a damsel in distress, and even with Rosie's restrictions on boots under her bed stated firmly in black and white, something about the lovely widow's plea leaves him unable to turn away her proposal of marriage. Del proves himself descent, honest, and hardworking, and before long, Rosie relaxes her rules on conjugal rights, with passion igniting between the unlikely couple.
