Lee Walker knows it won't be easy to start a new life in a new city. But she is on a mission: to prove to everyone and to herself, that she can make it here, working in the masculine world of the construction industry.
When contracting rival Sam Brown offers her a job, Lee is stunned and a little wary. Sam's motives seem honorable enough, even if he doesn't see her in a structly professional light. In fact, Sam sees her a as the woman she's always hoped to be -- smart, capable, warm, and funny. And sexy. Before she knows it, Lee is falling head over heels for her boss ... but part of her is sure that telling Sam about her past would have him backing away fast. Now she must choose between protecting her bruised and battered heart or trusting it to a man whose quiet strength just might heal it.
