However, at 18 years of age Bessie is rebellious, does what she likes and is determined to marry the man that her parents disapprove of. She is as outrageous and daring as Dorro is quiet and responsible.Resigned to living without Charlie, Dorro goes through with the marriage to her long standing fianc e, Arthur, only to begin a passionate affair with Charlie on her wedding day.
