After being educated in the east, Deborah Vandermark returns to Perkinsville, Texas, where her family is part of the thriving logging industry. She brings along an unexpected companion-her best friend, who is fleeing a wedding and groom she has no interest in. A determined matchmaker, Deborah sets her sights on uniting her brother and friend in what she hopes will be a true love match. Then Deborah meets Christopher Clayton, the town’s new doctor-and quickly realizes she has a much greater interest in medicine and science than the bookkeeping she studied at college. Soon Deborah is caught between her fascination for doctoring and her obligation to her family. And in the midst of her warring emotions is the doctor himself. Are her tumultuous feelings for the man, or for what he can teach her?
Peterson’s Best Effort in Awhile Reading this book was a breath of fresh air from Tracie Peterson. I’ve felt that her last few series haven’t been up to par with some of her best works. The last two series, I was a bit disappointed after reading them. However after finishing this book, I have high hopes for this new series. There were many things I liked about it and I hope that they will continue in future books.Â
Unfinished? While I value the fact that Tracie Peterson writes good clean books, as well as interesting, this is the second of her books I have downloaded that just stop without ending. Even if a book is a part of a series I like each one to be complete within itself.
It was okay The story moved slowly for me. It seemed to just go on and on in some parts with no advancement to the plot.Â
