Paisley, Scotland 1810. When Rowena and Neil Lindsay's mother tragically dies in a boating accident, her father - devastated by his wife's death - is unable to care them. When their father's wealthy employer, Fergus Bain, and his wife, Sarah - a childless couple - take them in, Neil is happy to enjoy his newfound good fortune whilst strong-willed Rowena longs for their old life, misses their father and resists Sarah's attempts to spoil her. Kerr Fraser, an employee at Fergus Bains thread mill, is the young man who saved Rowena and Neil from drowning. The son of a disgraced town councillor, Kerr and his family have fallen on hard times since his father's suicide; however, Kerr is determined to prove his worth. Wanting the best for Rowena, Fergus and Sarah dream of a society wedding for Rowena to a wealthy man. But Rowena wants to marry for love rather than advance her social position and work like the other women she knows in Paisley.
