From the Inside Flap
Ceilidh Highland is about to face what she thinks will be the biggest challenge of her life. She is about to become the teacher in an experimental return to the old-fashioned one-room schoolhouse. And soon she will also be struggling to overcome her attraction to RCMP Constable Allan Dumont. Movie-star handsome, dashing, sensitive and caring, he shares Ceilidh's passion for horses, and shortly she finds herself dangerously close to falling irrevocably in love with him.
But she can't. Ceilidh has already loved one Mountie, knows the pitfalls of caring for a law enforcement officer, and won't let it happen again.
About the Author

Since then she has gone on to write three novels for Avalon, a variety of articles and stories for magazines in Canada and the United States, and two books on her favorite dog, the Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever. For a 1992 article on this breed, Gail was awarded a Maxwell Medal in New York by the Dog Writers' Association of America for the best article in a canine magazine or newspaper. Gail's other interests include reading, horses, and canoeing. She currently lives in Bathurst, New Brunswick with her husband, Ron, and two dogs-a Sheltie mix and, of course, a Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever.
