Book Description:
When Cody Johnson first caught sight of structural engineer Abra Wilson, he thought of endless possibilities. She had style and confidence--and was distracting as hell. She'd called his design an impractical piece of fancy, but then he'd always preferred frankness to subtleties.
Abra had met men like Cody before. They usually thought they could smile their way out of trouble, and this overconfident East Coast architect was no exception. She'd told him to back off, but he wasn't listening.
Sparks ignited in the desert building site, and then passion soon followed. But was it enough to stop someone from trying to destroy their first project together? Would they be able to find out who it is before any more damage is done?

I am a woman engineer, and have worked in situations similar to that of the heroine during the time period depicted, and know the background. Both the hero and heroine would have been risking being fired with ruined reputations within the first few pages, or at least should have been terminally embarrassed by their behavior. Sorry, but if you have been there, the depiction is laughable.
I started this book and then threw it down in disgust because it was ridiculous. I picked it up again later to give it another chance. After I got past the first chapter or so, it got better.
Hey, Nora: 12 gauge wire is heavier than14, there's a difference between equipment and materials, and there would be more than one person doing Abra's job. There are several other things that I could mention, but I would have to include spoilers, so I won't.
BUT: If you don't know the background to compare it to what is depicted, this really is a pretty good story.
