Publisher Description
From the moment Gavin Blake set eyes on Emily Harris he knew she would never make it in the rugged high country where backbreaking work and constant hardship were commonplace. She would wilt there like a rose without water. He'd be sending her back to Boise before the first snows. He'd be willing to bet on it.She could say what she wanted. Emily Harris didn't belong in the hard life of the Blakes. Beautiful and refined, she was accustomed to the best life had to offer. Heaven only knew why she wanted to leave Boise to teach two young girls on a ranch miles from nowhere. He'd wager it had to do with a man. It always did when a beautiful woman was involved. Emily wanted to make some sort of mark on the world before marriage. She wanted to be more than just a society wife. Though she had plenty of opportunities back East, she had come to the Idaho high country looking to make a difference. Gavin’s resistance to her presence made her even more determined to prove herself. Perhaps changing the heart of one man might make the greatest difference of all.

"This was book #3 in a series by Robin Lee Hatcher "When Love Blooms" but was good read by itself also. The Blakes needed a governess/teacher for their two little girls and they were traveling in rough country. Emily sees the ad in paper for this job and wants her life to count for something so she decides this is job for her. Almost instantly she knows she has a feeling that something is there or "could be there" between she and Mr Blake. This bothers her immensely and all tru the book we see how she struggles with this feeling as she learns to love the little girls and the job of being a teacher. Good job Robin."
