Genre:
Women's Fiction, Romance
In
this epic and unique love story set in the wild mountains of West
Virginia, a young woman and her unlikely friends find their way
through multiple job hazards and terrible working conditions to
achieve the unexpected.
Andrea
never thought she’d live in a camp trailer or work outdoors in
inhospitable climates; but eager to leave the stress and tedium of
grad-school behind, she sets off with her estranged grandpa, Buck, to
build a pipeline through the rugged mountains of West Virginia. She’s
determined to understand the man and the family divide that drove him
away. Once the job starts, she forms an unlikely friendship with
Nick, the rough and tumble foreman of the bending crew. Most of the
guys aren’t willing to accept her, and Rooster, the handsome,
cocky, tie-in foreman, is determined that she’s a ridiculous
distraction.
But
building a pipeline is fraught with danger, fatigue, and
confrontation as egos collide. Caught up in the all-male social
microcosm, Andrea can’t help but understand the pecking order, and
she’s at the bottom. Being a woman makes it even more unlikely
she’ll be accepted. Buck proves to be a taskmaster, but a
kindhearted teddy-bear of a man under a gruff exterior, and Andrea
comes to love him, opening herself up to the pain of his
past.
Rooster
and Andrea are drawn to each other, yet they know an on-the-job
romance will only cause problems. Rooster is tormented by his own
past, and determined to prove himself to Buck, a pipeline ledged.
Messing with the old man’s granddaughter is a line Rooster refuses
to cross. But as Andrea shows herself to be a hard worker and a
valuable member of the crew, she earns Rooster’s respect and he
can’t keep his distance. It seems the couple can’t go back, they
can’t move forward, and they can’t let go. Both will have to make
sacrifices and take a chance on ruining their credibility in order to
be together.
