Brett (The Morgans of Rocky Ridge #6)
Margery Scott

Lawyer Brett Morgan has big dreams, including becoming mayor of Rocky Ridge and eventually, territorial governor. The only problem – the town council wants the mayor to be a married man, and Brett has no intention of marrying a woman he doesn’t love even if she does fit the requirements of a politician’s wife – elegant, refined, educated.
Lucy Hart, with her dusty trousers, flannel shirts and callused hands, expects to continue working the Two Harts Mine until the day she dies. She has no real education and no other way to earn a living, and she can’t imagine any man being attracted to her.
When Lucy’s future is threatened by two men who claim her father sold the mine to them before he died, she hires Brett to help her. Even though they are opposites in almost every way, their attraction to each other builds as they work together to prove the men’s claim is false.
Can they prove the mine legally belongs to Lucy? Will Lucy and Brett deny their growing love for each other? Or can they find a common ground and follow their dreams together?
