A hero should be strong, intelligent, and popular.
Lucas Bryant, an attorney running for state senator in Colorado, is two out of three.
Maybe two-and-a-half. He’s popular with his constituents, drawing a decent crowd at fund raising events, political debates, and even the occasional dance. He wished he were as popular with Miss Rolinda Wheaton as he was with her opposition, Angela Harvey.
And what was Miss Wheaton’s interest in the suffrage movement? True, she is a woman—not beautiful, like the petulant Miss Harvey. No, her looks went beyond the fine lines that society construed for a person’s appearance. Miss Wheaton’s attraction rose from deep within her. Perhaps her passion for women to vote also fueled her desire to prove her brother innocent. And to run a business well.
But none of these served Lucas well. He needs a wife to accompany him on the campaign trail, to serve as hostess for functions, to increase the voters’ notion of his respectability, and to propel his political career forward. Next year, the senate. And perhaps before he’s fifty, Washington DC.
Angela or Rolinda? A hard decision to make, for certain. Angela has her father’s money. Rolinda has a heart for others, a love of family, and a passion for justice. Angela has—well, money.
When Rolinda’s brother is arrested for bank robbery, Lucas believes his decision has been made for him. After all, he didn’t want to be associated with the family of a criminal, did he? But Rolinda’s defense of Paul wakens Lucas’s eyes to where true beauty comes from—inside a person.
Rolinda finally lets down her defenses long enough for him to come alongside her and help her with the investigation into the bank robbery, and Lucas finds himself—well, for that, you’ll need to read the book.
