Sammy Blue — Brenda B. Dawson

Born in 1800's Texas, before white women could own property, Sammy Blue is raised as a boy and rightful heir to the family ranch. As wild and carefree as the Texas Bluebonnets for which she's named. Innocently, she adores Jamie Scott, Texas Ranger, and undeniable rogue. Having no idea of what lies ahead, she naively insists that one day they will marry and live in wedded bliss. To ensure her future in a man's world, her mother sends her away to school where her childish dreams are unexpectedly shattered, leaving her bitter, and cynical. Jamie Scott's own future turns out just as bleak, and he survives by reliving the memory of the only female who ever loved him. Sweet, innocent, Sammy Blue.
