Medicine Woman (Western Prairie Brides, Book 3, EBOOK)

Every Dream Has A Price - and for Doctor Mary Ferguson, that price is high.

It's 1908 on the western prairie, and Mary has attained her dream. She's one of the first women doctors, and she's struggling hard for acceptance. The choices are clear cut--pursue her hard earned career, or fall in love and follow her heart. At this time and in this place, women can't have both. But when she meets David, a man trying to find balance between his Indian mother and his white father, she longs for more. David is returning to his people on the western prairies. He doesn't fully understand how the way of life he remembers from when he was a child has changed. Government policies have forced his Blackfoot people onto reserves, and there are troubling laws being enforced. He thinks longingly of Mary, but he's sure their lives are too disparate to ever come together.

This is the third stand alone book in the Western Prairie Brides Series, which began with Lantern In The Window. Mary's mother Annie was a mail order bride. She married Noah sight unseen. LANTERN IN THE WINDOW tells their love story. Mary is their oldest child. Annie's sister Bets is deaf. Her romance with a handsome and conflicted North West Mounted policeman is told in SILENT LIGHT, SILENT LOVE.
