Dr. Adam Hart wants to join the wild, wild west. He is engaged to the socialite, Doreena Fitzgibbon and wants to send for her as soon as he is settled. Jane Sparks has the boarding house next door to Dr. Hart. Her grandmother is dying and she refuses to let Dr. Hart further her suffering. She prepares a meal for about seven people, Dr. Hart included. Also included was George Pinter, the Mayor of Clyde, Kansas. After the meal, Jane sat with her dying grandmother and unbeknownst to her, Dr. Hart cleared and cleaned the dining room and kitchen. Jane has a strong mistrust of men in general and Dr. Hart in particular. How then can she fall into a hormonal trap and surrender?????? Not much backbone there. Adam is pleasantly surprised at how the children cluster around Jane and her cookie jar. But he is concerned about her apparent exhaustion. The other boarders at her house are a bit comical in their attitudes. But, oh, is Jane angry when she finds out that Adam has squelched her request for a little girl from the orphanage train. Peggy was an adorable child and always trying to hide. She was waiting for her "Nonnie" to come for her. Then the little smart-mouthed Johnny showed up and soon Jane and Adam has a family started. Oh, did I forget, Doreena renigged and found someone else. Thoroughly enjoyable story - well worth reading. Recommended --M
