author: Armstrong, Patricia
description: It's a classic battle of wills...
  
  Kate Bainbridge is hopping mad. Someone's set fire to the old logging mill that her grandfather won in a game of gin rummy and bequeathed to his only granddaughter. And the man in charge is being singularly unhelpful.
  
  Manager Locke Martyn has no time to teach the new owner - a city woman, who knows nothing about logging - how to run a mill or how to deal with the eccentric locals in Gracious Boon, Oregon. He thinks Kate should simply stay where she belongs - in L.A. - and forget about the place.
  
  Of course, Locke hasn't met Kate - yet!
