The father is an outlaw, that was exciting when she was rebelling against the strictures of society; however, when reality comes crashing in on her, she realizes that she cannot marry an outlaw, or allow an outlaw to raise her child.<br /> <br /> Jesse is the illegitimate son of a &quot;New Modern Woman&quot; before the phrase was even coined. He knows what it is like to be raised without a father, and has the mental and emotional scars to prove it. He is a good man, son, sheriff.<br /> <br /> Ione Harden, Jesse's Mother, is an intricate part of the story. She is an amazing woman, that through life and her own choices, has hoed a hard row, but raised a wonderful son, in Jesse.<br /> <br /> Through some mistaken town gossip, people believe that Jesse is the Father of Annie's baby. Jesse, because he was interested in Annie far before she became pregnant; and because of his experiences as an illegitimate child, wants to marry Annie. Annie fights the offer, but ultimately gives in.<br /> <br /> Jesse and Annie go through trials and tribulations, but also wonderful times before the end of the story. We see both grow into even more wonderful individuals.</div>
