title: Petticoat Warrior
author: Dan, Barbara
description: One night on her way to a women's rally, Dr. Sarah Boudinout walks into the wrong lecture hall and is treated to a shocking lesson on sexual anatomy by Dr. Gabe McKissack, whose scandalous good looks really get her hackles up! After a spirited debate on women's rights, Sarah storms out, leaving Gabe wildly intrigued as to her identity. One month later, Sarah's father is captured by rebel forces in Virginia. Determined to rescue him, Sarah disguises herself as a male and volunteers her skills as a physician in the Union Army. Reporting for duty, she comes face to face with the outrageous Dr. McKissack! Quickly seeing through her disguise, Gabe subjects her to a number of challenging tests designed to send her scurrying back to the safety of New York. Working together to save lives, their relationship is touch and go. How could it not be? After all, she is an ardent suffragette. Whereas he is... Well he may be an incredibly gifted surgeon, but must he draw women to him like pollen attracts bees? In a moment of reckless passion, the very prim and proper Dr. Sarah yields to her colleague's suductive charms. Rather than surrender her heart to Gabe, whom she secretly adores, she rejects his proposal, vowing never to marry until all women get the vote. This forces Gabe to resort to a dangerous game of cunning and trickery in this no-holds-barred battle of the sexes.
