A Dream Came True

After her parents’ deaths, and her brother’s departure for America, Jemima had no choice but to make a new life for herself.

Since she wasn't trained for anything, that wasn't going to be easy. Running her father’s house in Oxford had given her plenty of common sense, but few qualifications for earning a wage in London.

On the whole, she realized she had been very lucky to be taken on as companion-help to Lady Manderly, yet Jemima knew that her life was somehow unsatisfactory, and she felt unfulfilled. Such thoughts might, of course, have something to do with Lady Manderly's nephew—Professor Alexander Cator!

A tiny bedsitter over a stationer’s shop offered independence, certainly, but hardly the cheerful country life she had once imagined. The arrogant medical consultant seemed determined to provoke her at every turn, yet his cool grey eyes missed remarkably little.
