Using her large inheritance and architectural degree, she sets out to create a village run by women--Resolve, Kansas. Carpenter and Civil War veteran Edward Pritchard's dream of building homes for Chicago's elite must be put on hold until he gains references. Serving as a contractor under Angelina's well-known DuBois name provides that opportunity. But can Angelina trust her handsome new carpenter to respect her as his boss? Will the project take Edward one step closer to his goals, or will it make him a laughingstock? Can these two strong-willed people find love amid such an unconventional experiment?
