Description
Elizabeth Sanders isn’t afraid of anything, except what will happen to her beloved town if the Big Mountain Lumber Mill is destroyed. When she overhears a plot to do just that, she vows to put a stop to it, even if it means dressing as a young lumberjack to expose the saboteur. There’s only one problem with her plan—her brother’s handsome friend and fellow logger Garrett Jones, who arouses a desire within her soul as fierce as the river rapids.
When Garrett discovers that the odd new lad on the crew is in fact Beth, he’s shocked. A logging camp is no place for a young woman—especially the spirited beauty he’s admired for so long. Keeping her safe is easier said than done, however, as the attraction between them flares into true passion. As the danger mounts, Beth and Garrett must work together to survive the last log run down the wild rapids and claim any chance of saving the mill—and their chance at a future . . .
Actually 3 1/2 stars. I enjoyed Beth, Garrett, and the secondary characters like Aunt June and Carrie. I found the story slowed at times when it got technical about the logging industry. Beth is courageous and yet soft at times, and I loved this. Garrett is brusque at times, but very much a caring man when it comes to those around him. The entire storyline is a great one. I just could have used a little less detail on the lumber process. I am looking forward to the next story, and hopefully, it will be Simon’s story.
I received a copy of this story through Netgalley, and this is my unsolicited review.
