A measure of a lady by Deeanne Gist



Man,I laughed so hard on this one.
Really I won't tell the details,but what I will say that is not sweet and inoccent romance,is real-life situations that we can relate too.
Here is the excerpt from that one.
“Five rules for proper 19th century ladies.
Speak politely. Even when you’re the only respectable woman around, protesting San Francisco’s decadent surrender to gold fever.
Dress Modestly. Wear your sunbonnet at all times Ensure nsees your men’s boots muddied by the city streets.
Remain Devoted to Family. Protect you siblings from the temptations that surrround them, even against their wishes.
Stand Above Reproach. Most difficult when a captivating man turns out to be a saloon owner.
Rise Above Temptation. No accepting gifts. No bestowing favors. No impeachale behavior…well, maybe just one…little…kiss?
When these rules become increasingly dufficult to uphold, can Rachel Van Buren remain a beacon of virtue in a city of vice?


Gold rush San Francisco was no plave to a lady. Mud fulled teh streets; rowdy men filled the saloons; and gold fever filled the air. Stranded and without hope of a quich return to the more civilized East. Rachel Van Buren’s only option is to fight back.

Devoted to protecting her siblings and her honor Rachel appoints herself a one woman clean up committee, determined to bring some morality, and a little class, to this decadent town. But fighting on her own proves a difficult task. Her sister and brother can’t seem to resist the dangerous temptations about them, and ven Rachel’s own heart is threatening to betray her. Is there realy anything worth redeeming in the rapscallion saloon owner she can’t seem for gorget.
