Nurse at Large

In this sequel to ‘Nurses in Training’ which can be read as a ‘stand alone’ romance, we meet again Tina Anderson and Hine Weaver.
The two nurses are now State Registered and plan to travel out to New Zealand to try and find Hine’s little son. Sally, the third of the three friends, has married Peter Phillips, the surgeon and lives happily in the Midlands of England.
Hine and Tina decide to travel out by ship, and helped by Peter Phillips get employment on the ‘Fairsky’ to help pay their way. Hine starts out in the nursery and Tina is the ship’s nurse. At first Tina has trouble with the only doctor, Jim Wainright who is grieving for his wife who died in childbirth. He has taken to solving his problem with alcohol, but after a dramatic crisis when Hine has to step in to help in the surgery he discovers that his heart is not entirely broken.
Arriving in Auckland, New Zealand, Jim and Hine go in search of her son Tane and travel to the South Island, meeting up with Tane’s father.
Tina, in the meantime takes a job for a short while as a Matron of a small Medical and Post Operative Hospital in Auckland. Here she looks after Ainsley Robb, and through her meets her son David; a red-headed strong-willed Scotsman. From the first the sparks fly, but could this be the man Tina has been waiting for?
