Kittys Reader Notes & Book Excerpt

" When Valerie Shelton decides to join the nursing staff of El Fatima Hospital in the new rich oil state of Kerouat, she hopes she will be able to forget her gone-awry love affair with the handsome playboy Roy Lushington...

...Valerie has come East because of the urging of her friend Andrea, but though friends these two are very different in character : Valerie the dedicated nurse, and Andrea, the gay extrovert who loves parties and having fun.

To Valerie's dismay, she discovers that the reserved, forbidding man she encountered on the plane is none other than the famous surgeon Mr. Dominic Chepstow, who is the new head of the hospital. "
