Every Dream Has A Price--and for Doctor Mary Ferguson, that price is high.
It's 1908 on the western prairie, and Mary has attained her dream. She's one of the first women doctors.
The choices are clear cut--pursue her hard-earned career, or fall in love and follow her heart. At this time and in this place, women can't have both. But when she meets David, a man trying to find a balance between his Indian mother and his white father, she longs for more.
David is returning to his mother's people on the western prairies. Government policies have forced his Blackfoot people onto reserves, and there are troubling laws being enforced. He thinks longingly of Mary, but he's sure their lives are too different despite their love for one another.
But Mary has a mind of her own, and she's willing to follow her heart--into danger, into the unknown.
Bobby lives in a tiny cottage in a small city deep in the Canadian Rockies. She writes, reads, and, when it's not snowing, rides around on her three-wheeled electric bike.
In summer, she hitches up the vintage camper she renovated and goes to one of the lakes nearby. She named the camper "Calamity Jane."
Calamity Jane is one of her heroes. That sharp-shooting, hard-riding lady once said, "If a woman wants to be a legend, she should just go ahead and be one."
Bobby says, True, that.
