Rating: 3.5 (2 reviews)
Author: Janet Ferguson

A career‐cutting injury leaves nurse Thea Westering reluctantly accepting a temporary secretary position on the orthopaedic ward at St Stephen’s. Though she resists the role at first, she gradually warms to the new environment—and to the handsome registrar James Mayling, who shows more than professional interest. The romance between Thea and James is complicated by the presence of two other men: a former lover who is determined to marry her, and James himself, who is already engaged to the lovely Sister Ruth Filey. As pressure mounts, the future of all three characters hangs in a delicate balance, turning their budding love into a potentially ill‑omened affair.
