Sequel to All the Trees in Pearl and All the Women in Pearl. Twin Mountains Ranch foreman Mickey Lowe can't sit through one more night of newlywed relations without losing his mind. Packing up his frustration and yearning, he delivers himself to Pearl spinster Emma Morgan with the intent to inspire some lusty cries of his own. When the cowboy comes knocking at Emma's door late in the night, she believes she knows what he wants and she is ready for him in an instant...until she discovers what he's really after.
