Con artist Norma Shearer sets her sights on southern business man Johnny Mack Brown. He falls in love with her and impulsively marries her, then takes her home to meet the family back on the plantation. Norma finds out he's not a millionaire and tries to leave him, but it turns out she has fallen in love with him as well. Her old accomplices show up and try to blackmail her out of the money he makes selling a formula for concrete. She confesses to him, but ultimately is redeemed. Lighthearted, if entertaining, fluff, buoyed by Shearer's winning smile and natural performance.
