Nathaniel Yancey prefers a simple, tranquil retreat to the adventurous life chosen by so many of his nine brothers. His profession? A clergyman, destined to serve the Lord. He is assigned to a church in Virginia City, Nevada, whose pastor was recently killed in an accident. The place is supposed to be peaceful and quiet. Upon arrival, however, he is shocked to discover that the parsonage is swamped by females: the six daughters of Reverend Winthrop-three adult women and three young children aged four, five, and six-and a former lady of the evening, who runs the place. Even the cat is female, and chaos rules. Nathaniel feels overwhelmed. And a trifle resentful. However, after a long and enlightening talk with the housekeeper, he realizes that he is stuck here. Soon, he has accepted what must be, settling in and endearing himself to his foster family and his congregation. The handsome pastor has eyes for Miss Caroline Winthrop, eldest daughter of the former pastor. Except that she has been keeping company with a well-to-do banker, and is well on her way to a formal engagement. All seems fair in love and war, and Nathaniel is resigned to losing the love of his life. Then baby Hollie goes missing. And Nathaniel finds out that he is meant to be here, after all, doing what he does best.
