Merrill has grown up in a household full of men. She's been taking care of her father and brothers since her mother's death and not giving much thought to her own future. When a new man comes to town, he catches her eye, but some of the things she overhears makes her doubt his character.
Rurik has come to Minnesota to help out his uncle who is severely ill. He is fond of Merrill, but his former fiance shows up in town and now Rurik has another problem. She wants to reinstate their engagement and she is willing to cook up lies to make that happen. Rurik wants Merrill to believe in him, but even if she does, will anyone else believe his innocence?
This book was a great read. You get a glimpse into the life of an icecutter and also the custom furniture business. The characters are well developed and the story interesting. Book 2 is called The Quarryman's Bride and the third title is The Miner's Lady. This story is stand alone, which is important to me. Both the other titles are on my watch list and I hope to read them sometime in the future. Good Book!
