Millie Watts took enough abuse from her drunken pa and her late husband, so the last thing she wants is another man to slap her around. However, Montana sounds far enough away from Arkansas and her pa to start a new life. She'll worry later about any potential husband waiting at the trip's end. With one look at the painfully thin woman before him, wagonmaster Blake Donovan tells her firmly she can't go. He's choosing hefty women for this trip to Montana because those who live through it will be little more than skin and bones by the time they arrive. This one would have nothing left of her. Hell, no self-respecting buzzard would bother picking at her bones. But why isn't she willing to take no for an answer?
