Although Dolores Jardine's grandmother has betrothed her to the wealthy young Spaniard, Pedro de Alvarez, she is determined to marry a man of her own choosing. She falls in love with novelist Richard Ferris who, although initially attracted by her beauty and Creole charm, abandons the girl when his old flame Lillian Hetherington suddenly appears.
