 Twentyish Sally Kelton is unhappy at home and in the drab town in which she lives, until she meets roving musician Steve Ryan. Sally falls for Steve, but to Steve, she s just another fling before he heads to another town. Sally decides to "pull up stakes" and heads on a bus to Steve s next stop. On the road, she meets Drew Baxter, owner of a gaseteria in the town where she s heading. Drew sets Sally up with a room at a local boarding house and a job at his business. Try as he might, Drew can t win Sally s heart from Steve, who has remained indifferent to Sally since her arrival. When Steve heads off to South America, Sally is even more despondent--especially after she learns that she s pregnant with his child.
