Joe Denton is a lumber jack. Anna is an orphan searching for an income. When Anna finds the perfect chance to get away from the war, memories and her employer, she takes the risk.
Joe isn't comvinced he needs a wife until a man sues him because he has too much land for a bachelor. Bachelors have 320 acres. Married men have 640. Joe doesn't care what kind of wife he gets as long as he can keep ALL of his land.
When Joe buys a wife, he finds that this bride was brought to Seattle out of deception. Anna thought that she was to be a cook. Can Joe and Anna figure out how to fix the problem at hand? A wife can also be a cook. A cook doesn't have to be a wife though.
