Denim and Lace is filled with witty remarks and a dose of sarcasm that will have you turning the page without pause.
As the eldest daughter of a wandering scientist, Samantha took care of her mother and her twin sisters. Able to hunt and shoot just like a boy and too tall to be considered a beauty like her sisters, Samantha throws her heart into the land. A natural green thumb, she comes to California with dreams of farming. Her mother and sisters merely hope to create a new home away from their war-torn Tennessee.
Her father's letters stopped abruptly after he visited Talbott, a Sierra mountain town. Her father's description of the hateful Sloan Talbott convinces Samantha the man is involved with her father's disappearance. Her delight at reaching her new home is tempered by her hatred of a man she's never met.
The product of a destroyed, tragic marriage, Sloan has no reason to trust women. He's built this town and his fortune with the goal of keeping women out of his life. Samantha and the other Neely women defy all he's believed true, and Sloan can fight only so much temptation. With Sam swinging her sassy hips, Mrs. Neely offering heavenly ambrosia, and the twins turning his town into a home for the lovelorn, he figures the only way he'll ever get his life back is by finding Sam's father. He just demands a rather extortionate payment in return.
