Rural switchboard operator Georgie Gail is proud of her independence in a man's world... which makes it twice as vexing when the telephone company sends a man to look over her shoulder.
Dashing Luke Palmer is more than he appears though. He's a Texas Ranger working undercover to infiltrate a notorious gang of train robbers. Repairing telephones and tangling with this tempestuous woman is the last thing he wants to do. But when his stakeout puts Georgia in peril, he realizes more than his job is on the line.
Reviews with the most likes.
In the first scene I immediately took a liking to Georgie and her personality and was not overly fond of Luke, but then as the chapters next progressed with Georgie back in her own environment and Luke Palmer riding into town as the new Telephone Troubleman I was reversed in my feelings and loved Luke, but found Georgie a bit frustrating. It took me a long while longer to get back to enjoying this book as there was a good portion of it where I was bored and annoyed by the birds topic that was never ceasing. However, as more details came out and Luke's story continued it was once again the great witty form that I enjoy so much from Deeanne. She always has such strong feminist (in a good way) characters and that is one of the things that always makes her reads unique.
Thanks to Bethany House Publishers and Deeanne for a copy for review.
