Free-spirited Sheridan Kinmont accepts a job as physician in the small mining town of Shafter, Texas, only to be tempted by the hard-headed mining company manager, Shay Bannigan, who sets out to prove Sheridan unfit to be a doctor. Original.
Shay Bannigan expected the new mining company's doctor to arrive. He did NOT expect the doctor to be female! Females were not meant to be physicians. They were too emotional. He began plans immediately to collect evidence to prove her unfit and fired. Dr. Sheridan Kinmont had run into men who thought like Bannigan before. She and her nurse, Poppy, made a bet between themselves as to how long it would take to change his mind about female doctors. In doing so, Sheridan learns not all men are as rotten as her ex-husband was. Shay learns females make wonderful physicians, as well as, learning many survival in the desert techniques. ***This is the third in the healing women trilogy! I loved every second I spent reading it. I highly recommend it! The author made it even more enjoyable by having Sheridan and Poppy both be DIVORCED women, which was extremely rare in 1899.***
