A Season for Butterflies (Men at Work: Men in Uniform #23)

by Laurie Paige

Published 1998ISBN 978-0-3738-1035-2

A RARE BREED The day Stassney arrived on the island, Paul Windham made his position perfectly clear. He proved his reckless nature with one jostling jeep ride, a ride that left her clinging to the edge of her seat. Paul led a rugged life in this land of tropical forests and waterfalls, and he wasn't about to give up his freedom for anyone. For Stassney Murdock happiness was as elusive as the colorful butterflies she studied. Their love was a rare breed, impossible to pin down, too wild to lock up in ajar, yet too beautiful to let slip through her fingers. His freedom would cost her.

Beyond its central premise, the book can be read through the connected lenses of Fiction. Those themes offer useful points of attention as the characters, ideas, or world develop, especially where the book complicates the expectations of its primary category.

A more thoughtful way into this book

This guide uses the edition details and category signals above to help you choose deliberately. It does not replace the author's work or a full review.

Good to know

Preview the edition to decide how it fits your available reading time.

Begin with its place in Fiction, then notice where the book resists that label.

Try this reading approach

Read for connection, not completion.

Mark one passage that sharpens the book's central concern and one that complicates it. That tension often reveals more than a quick summary.

Three questions to carry with you

  1. What does the central character want, and what do they misunderstand about that desire?
  2. Which detail or relationship changes how you interpret the story?
  3. What feeling or question does the book leave with you after the plot moves on?
