Terry Lovell is my Independent Lady. She’s a restoration architect who restores old ante-bellum houses to their original glory. A woman in a man’s world, she’s tough, independent and strong.


Dirk Warner is a former pro athelete. A quarterback with several Superbowl rings, in fact. He hired Terry Lovell to restore his crumbling mansion in rural Georgia because Terry Lovell has the reputation of being the best. But the Terry Dirk expects to find working on his house is Mr. Terry Lovell, not Ms. Lovell.  Dirk isn’t a complete chauvinist. He knows women now work in all kinds of professions previously dominated by men, but he’s spent his professional life being the alpha guy among a lot of other guys and to Dirk women do very well in the office, in school, in the arts – but not on the playing field and not on a construction site!


Now it’s up to Terry to change his mind …
