Dismissed after a disastrous year at the newly created Harvard Medical School, Samuel buries his dreams of the future. Shamed by his dismissal, he returns to his north shore home, where he avoids his lifelong friend Lucy dismissing all ideas of marrying her.
Lucy pretends Samuel’s rejection means little as she helps her family on their farm until an early New England blizzard brings challenges and death to her door. When it is over, Lucy lays in her cabin near death with only five-year-old Sally to aid her. Samuel discovers Lucy delirious with fever and endeavors to save her. Unwittingly, he puts her reputation in danger. At his parents’ insistence, Samuel is forced to marry a barely conscious Lucy.
Lucy awakens to a reality more bizarre than her dreams. Sure that Samuel’s vows are coerced, she does everything in her power to convince him to annul the marriage. With the help of his mother and Sarah, Samuel sets out to prove to Lucy that the vows he took are permanent, if she will give him a second chance.
