Review: The Girl in the Hard Hat - Loretta Hill



Ever wondered what it's like to be a female working in a man's world ? Are you a fan of the Australian Rural Fiction ? One of my favourite authors is Loretta Hill who writes about your average female who finds themselves planted bang smack into the man's world of jobs. In Book #1 The Girl in the Steel-Capped Boots, we met Lena who became an Engineer and now in Book #2 The Girl in the Hard Hat , we meet Wendy who has arrived to the outback with one goal really in mind - to find her true father as she has just discovered that she was adopted.  Wendy, needing a job finds herself work in a construction site as the Safety and Health manager and within her first week there, it seems she is getting on the wrong side of people as they are needing to buck up their ideas especially since the previous manager was a drunk who let alot of things slide. With her new job and trying to fit in and on top of that trying to locate a dad she doesn't really know anything about , there isn't much time for Wendy to have a social life and find love but that doesn't mean that love has given up on her as she captures the eye of Gavin - one of the engineers in Lena's department. The thing though is Gavin only tends to have one night stands as he can't let anyone discover his secret, but will he find himself falling hard and fast for Wendy ? Can he protect Wendy and the ones he cares for and has made friends with , when his secret blows wide open and their lives are threatened ? Will Wendy be able to find her biological father and what will her reaction be when she discovers who her father is and the truth about her family ?
Another awesome book and I love how Loretta brought a few of the characters from the first novel into Book #2 and now I am looking forward to reading Book #3 The Girl in the Yellow Vest.
If you are looking for a strong female character to read about , one older than Katniss Everdeen and Tris Prior , then check out Loretta Hill's Series "The Girl In The" as you will not be disappointed.
