Title: "Bluebonnet Belle" by Lori Copeland
The story takes place in the unspoiled, small town of Texas in 1940s and follows the struggle between a lady doctor and a professional doctor who both have a hard time with strong faith in modern medicine and the past ways of treating diseases.
Despite their differences, they must unite to fight for women's rights in their community, despite the oppression of their past and their immediate surroundings, which had stuck hand in hand centuries ago. They both fall in love – Lady Sarah, the mother of the author, and the Doctor Richard Lawrence, whose father had once belonged to the barber's shop on the corner of a pre-war street of San Francisco.
In the novel, Lori Copland describes the obstacles, prejudices, and external forces that are involved in saving a woman's life. In the process of writing the book, the author also learned to study history and documenting realities. No wonder that the book wasn't officially published until 2008. Nowadays, it is a classic to read for everyone who wants to understand the politics and contemporary state of the medical field.

He treated her like some quack, but April was determined to save other women from dying on the operating table, like her mother did.Gray couldn't help admiring April's spirit and good intentions. Yet he couldn't let this bluebonnet belle steal all his patients…even if she was on her way to stealing his heart.
