About this ebook

The logging industry in eastern Texas is booming, and Deborah Vandermark plans to assist her family's business now that she's completed college. Unexpectedly, her best friend, Lizzie Decker, accompanies her back home--fleeing a wedding and groom she has no interest in. Deborah, the determined matchmaker, puts her sights on uniting her brother and dear friend in a true love match.

Deborah soon meets Dr. Christopher Clayton, a much-needed addition to the town. As their lives intersect, Deborah realizes that she has a much greater interest in medicine and science than the bookkeeping she was trained in. But when typhoid begins to spread and Lizzie's jilted fiance returns, Deborah wonders if true love can overcome such obstacles...for those dearest to her, and for herself.

Ratings and reviews

Was a good read but I dont like how now authors leaving stories unfinished so you have to purchase another book to find the ending of a story and they start the next story and leave it hanging again!

As always I thoroughly enjoy reading Tracie's books. The characters are so well developed that you feel like you know them. The story compels you to keep reading.

Loved it but not a good ending. Or I guess I wasn't ready to end reading it. Very captivating
