Josh Porter's plans to win his grandfather's challenge and fulfill his father's final wish to gain full control of the family business hit a roadblock when he breaks his leg. But his enforced stay in Sweetwater Crossing gives him new ideas about the expansion of the company into new territory--ideas Louisa could help turn into reality.
If only the town were more accepting of Louisa's talents! Someone is determined to convince her to abandon her dream of healing others. Can Josh help her uncover the person behind the threats before it's too late? And is there any future for them together when neither of them plans to stay?
My thoughts:
I love this series so far;
this second book was well worth the wait.
It was good to revisit Sweetwater Creek, reconnect with some characters
and meet new ones. Doctor in training, Louisa Vaughn meets Josh Porter in a rather
unique but timely manner, she is visiting town for a short time, he has been injured
when she finds him at the side of the road.
They form a bond as she has
set his broken leg, offers as much medical advice as she can in helping him
recover. Unfortunately, as time goes by,
the towns people have decided they do not want or trust a woman doctor. It was
a different time and I am so happy that we live in a time when gender does not play
a role in a person’s decision to choose their path in life and is judged on
their abilities to perform in their chosen profession.
Both Josh and Louisa are fantastic
characters, strong, hardworking, and truly likable. I have been a fan of this authors
work and loved this book. Highly
recommend.
I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary
copy of this book. Opinions are my own.
