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.

First published in her teens, Barbara Dan has en-joyed a variety of life experiences, including working as an professional actress, model, night club comedienne, singer/dancer, comedy writer, puppeteer, theatrical producer in Hollywood, screenwriter, publicist, fund-raiser, real estate saleswoman, hands-on builder of houses, escrow officer, co-teacher of couples' communications workshops with her family therapist husband, as well as publisher, editor, and adjunct college professor. But by far her biggest joy has been the grand adventure of being the mother of four now grown children, grandma to five grandchildren and great-grandmother of three toddlers. With family roots planted deep in New England history, Barbara is a voracious reader of history, loves quilting, gardening, oil painting, tracking genealogies, and prowling around in old graveyards and musty museums while doing research for her latest novel. She is currently a member of Women Writing the West and Western Writers of America, Inc. Her novel Silent Angel won Best Historical Novel Award in the Colorado RWA's Heart of the Rockies competition in 1992. Besides degrees in Theatre Arts and Advanced Accounting, she earned her M.A. in Humanities (emphasis: history and literature) from California State University in 1988, but feels that life experience is the most valuable tool any writer brings to his or her work. (A good sense of humor helps, too!)
