The new doctor wears petticoats…
Montana Territory 1886 – Fresh out of medical school, Dr. Beth Addison arrives in the rough-and-ready frontier town of Twin Forks. The town desperately needs a physician… yet finding acceptance here as a Black woman doctor won’t be easy. But Beth has no choice. No hospital or private medical practice Back East will hire her, and the spirited widow has a young son to support. She’s determined to build a new life for herself here while saving lives, no matter the odds.
She’s a widow… isn’t she?
Her latest patient is Huritt, a devastatingly handsome and flirtatious Blackfoot horse wrangler. Their instant attraction soon blossoms into something more as her patient begins to court her. Then she makes a shocking discovery. Her new beau’s best friend is her ex-husband Isaiah, who’s alive and well and working on a ranch. And all the feelings she thought dead and buried with her late husband come rushing back.
Torn between an old love and a new one…
Now, Beth must choose between a second chance at love with her ex-husband and a new and scandalous relationship with his best friend. Her happiness–and her son’s future in this small frontier town–hang in the balance.
