the long version

Pregnant, unmarried, and seventeen, Lucy Hargrove arrives in Oregon City with no idea what to do next. The sweet-talking father of the baby has vanished, it's 1951, and Lucy can't stay on her family's homestead in Idaho.

Lucy insists she will keep her baby, but as she learns more of what it truly means to raise a child without a father, will she change her mind?
