About this book
A summer visit to the Berkshire Hills turns into a contest for a wealthy young doctor's attention. Jay Gardiner hopes to enjoy a quiet stay in Lee, Massachusetts, but Mrs. Pendleton has brought Lou and Sally there with marriage in mind. Behind the family's fashionable appearance lie rented grandeur and strained finances. The sisters' rivalry, their mother's careful arrangements, and Jay's first outings give Laura Jean Libbey's romance an opening full of calculation and bruised pride.
The story also follows Bernardine, who waits on a New York street for the husband she has married that day. As evening falls and a storm approaches, a policeman questions her and doubts the promise on which she depends. This dime novel combines courtship and adventure with sharp differences in wealth and security.
