Logger in Petticoats — Paty Jager

Book Five in the Halsey Brothers historical western romance series

Hank Halsey believes he's found the perfect logging crew -- complete with cooks -- until he discovers Kelda Neilson would rather swing an axe than flip eggs. As he sets out to prove women belong in the kitchen, he's the one in danger of getting burned.

Strong and stubborn, Kelda Nielsen grew up falling trees, and resents any man who believes she's not capable, until Hank. He treats her like a lady and has her questioning what that means.

As Kelda and Hank's attraction builds, she hires a cook so she can sneak out and work in the woods. But will her deceit ruin her chance at love or will hardheaded Hank realize it's more than his love that puts a sparkle in Kelda's eye?
