Book Cover & Preview Text
My girls have no reasons to complain. If they don't like it here, they can quit." "They are women, not girls. You treat them with no respect, demanding late hours, locking the doors and windows, allowing dangerous conditions. If women had the vote, we would make such violations of human decency a crime." Several women cheered. A flurry of activity at the gate distracted Kate and she mounted the peach crate to see over the crowd. The horse drawn paddy wagon was parked outside the fence, and she shuddered at sight of the ominous iron bars over the ventilator holes. She looked toward the gate. Two men entered the yard and made steady progress toward the building. The early morning sunlight broke through the mist, glancing off their badges. There was no mistaking John Gallagher and his deputy. They strode with determination, their shoulders set proudly with authority. Kate's stomach flipped over in anticipation of the coming battle.

As she stirs up trouble and controversy while fighting for the women’s vote and searching for her father’s killer, John cannot help but admire her courage, pride, and magnificent spirit. While sparks fly and an undeniable attraction builds between Kate and John, she soon realizes her search for justice has put her in grave danger. Now only time will tell if her rugged lawman can save her, before it is too late. In this historical tale, a gritty woman’s suffragist on a perilous journey to seek justice is about to discover that nothing is more powerful than a woman on a mission, especially when she partners with a man just as determined to capture her heart forever.
