The Lady's Mine by Francine Rivers is an excellent read about a Boston woman being sent to a little mining town out west to claim her uncle's inheritance. She causes quite the stir when she restarts publishing the newspaper her uncle wrote in spite of being old she was a woman and shouldn't do it. Just like she pursued starting up a mining operation at the mine she inherited. Although she is determined never to marry, several men would like to change her mind about that!
I enjoyed this book very much! It is well written and moves along with a good mix of action, interesting characters, humor, mystery and romance. Some lines made me laugh out loud! It addresses the issue of women's rights and shows how people can bring about change to a community. I had a hard time putting it down and always looked forward to getting back to it. This has clean language and no raunchy love scenes. It even has questions at the end for book club discussions. I highly recommend this one! (Karen's review, 5 stars)
