Summary Addison Carter was hired by Magnolia Oil to work as their company doctor in Healdton, Olkahoma. In 1917, oil companies didn't hire women to work for them, so that alone was quite a miracle. At least it was until she arrived from eastern Arkansas with an ego the size of Texas and dreams twice as large, only to have them all shredded to pieces in ten minutes when the directors of the oil company informed her they thought she was a male with a name like Addison. But soon she is hired by Tilly and Clara Anderson to set their cantankerous cousin Tucker Anderson's broken leg and care for him until he healed. Tucker figured he'd died and gone to hell when his cousins hired a female doctor to take care of him.
