There's one solution, though, that his family believes can change that: Jed can marry Minnie Shaw, daughter of the railroad owner, and bring the railroad closer to their ranch. Ella Carmine is in constant conflict with the dreams her mother has for her and the dreams she has for herself. One night, two masked men arrive at her residence and steal her mother's necklace right off her neck. Seeing a chance to finally prove her worth to her mother, Ella is determined to recover the necklace. She secretly follows the masked men to Four Kings Ranch and hatches a plan. Claiming she needs employment, Ella is hired by Jed to be a maid at Four Kings Ranch. Ella is nothing like Minnie, and Jed's curiosity is piqued as the two get to know each other. And though Ella came to track down her mother's necklace, she finds that she enjoys working on the ranch. Her eyes are opened to possibilities that she never knew existed, and she begins to wonder if the ranch might have more to offer than simply the return of her mother's necklace. But Jed's mother isn't about to let a maid ruin the ranch's prospects, and her sabotaging brings everything to a boiling point. Secrets are exposed, lives are in danger, and Jed and Ella must make difficult choices. And soon they learn that the necklace holds plenty of its own secrets-secrets that could unite them... or tear them apart forever.
