Synopsis

Lily Salt has sworn off men. After finally gaining her independence, the last thing she needs is another man telling her what to do. But the handsome railroad engineer from New York isn't at all what she expected. He's kind, gentle...and tempting enough to make her wonder what a second chance at love might be worth. A self-acknowledged black sheep, Roen Shepard knows what it means to feel alone. Recognizing a kindred spirit in the reserved widow whose fascinating blue-green eyes have seen too much and charmed by the warmth of her ready-made family, the two begin an unlikely friendship. When a complication from his past follows him to Frost Falls, Roen proposes a mad scheme to protect the new life he's built and keep close the stubborn woman he's accidentally fallen for—a marriage of convenience. But Lily has secrets of her own, and the closer he gets to uncovering them the more he comes to realize that the only truth that matters is the secret to unlocking her heart.

3.5 to 4 stars. Set in a small town in Colorado 1901. A widow with four children, and a railway surveyor/designer who is a few years younger. It's a marriage of convenience, and it takes a while for the barriers between Roen and Lily to melt away and their romance to really take off. Once Lily comes......more

The story was nothing like I expected from the blurb but became so much more as it developed. Written back when the railroad was blazing trails across the country a single mother, leery of men meets a railroad surveyor-construction engineer. Slow building with lots of chemistry.

Goodreads review by Dorine on June 27, 2019

A TOUCH OF FOREVER is the best meet-cute I’ve read. It’s easy to root for this couple because they’re adorable, and their flirting made me smile.
