Synopsis

New York Times bestselling author LaVyrle Spencer offers a story about falling in love, and finding the courage to follow your dreams . . .

Lee Walker knows it won't be easy to start a new life in a new city. But she is on a mission: to prove to everyone, and to herself, that she can make it here, working in the masculine world of the construction industry. When contracting rival Sam Brown offers her a job, Lee is stunned and a little wary. Sam's motives seem honorable enough, even if he doesn't see her in a strictly professional light.

In fact, Sam sees her as the woman she's always hoped to be—smart, capable, warm, funny, and sexy. Before she knows it, Lee is falling head over heels for her boss. But part of her is sure that telling Sam about her past would have him backing away, fast. Now she must choose between protecting her bruised and battered heart—or trusting it to a man whose quiet strength just might heal it . . .

Whether set in the Old West or in present day suburban Minnesota, a Spencer novel means seeing love in a new light and meeting characters so real it's all you can do not to climb into the pages yourself.

She lives with her husband, Dan, in North Oaks, Minnesota.

Written in 1983, must have been one of LaVryle's first books. For years, she was my favorite author. I didn't enjoy this book as much as others, but I think it was early in her career. I still saw glimpses of the greatness that came in her numerous other books.......more

Goodreads review by Lizzy on April 29, 2016

Super gostoso de ler. A autora apresenta uma heroína que perdeu judicialmente a guarda dos seus dois filhos por suas poucas condições econômicas e porque não, pelo seu sangue meio índio (sabemos que essa hipocrisia existe). Ela tem que recomeçar num campo dominado pelos homens, o da construção civil......more
