Overview: Tucson, 1917. When newlywed Ellie Smithfield steps off the train in the desert city, she expects a stable life. Instead, her husband Edward takes off for the battlefield in Belgium, leaving Ellie stranded with a string of overdue bills and his late uncle’s hardware store sealed in dust since 1914. Desperate not to return to the New York City tenement and the dead-end life she hoped to escape by marrying well, she takes a risk to change everything. Despite her limited cash and the town’s men’s disapproval, Ellie dreams of refashioning the store into a place where women can find the perfect cake pan or a rake for a Victory Garden. When the handsome bachelor next door threatens to become more than a friend, Ellie stands by her wedding vows until a shocking telegram eclipses the life she expected and opens the door to a second chance at love.
