The Problem Was Romantic
She thought she knew her own mind. Three years’ training at Updale had taught her more than to sign her name “Carolyn Cutler, R.N.” But now she was a successful nurse on private duty–and her problems were far from medical. They were:
Dr. Livingston: Carolyn had idealized him while she was in training. In fact they had considered themselves engaged. Now she wasn’t sure whether she loved him as a man or as a surgeon.
Derek Williams: Carolyn’s employer–a young widower. Her love for him contained a strong mixture of pity.
Bill Hamilton: Impetuous, red-headed playboy. His only claim to fame was a long series of breach-of-promise suits. To Carolyn his actions were dubious, his charm devilish.
The three men were quite a problem. They all wanted to marry Carolyn.

Oh *my* *GOSH* ha
Rob, do not mock what you do not understand. Faith Baldwin, in all truth, turns out some of the more decent nurse romances out there.
Not like that would be hard. I started to make up a nurse romance about my beautiful niece Elisabeth [aloud] at the dinner table one night entitled “Internship In Love,” and had a good, solid first chapter finished before dessert.
Does anyone else think that Nurse Carolyn looks startlingly like Jane Russell?
No wonder she has three suitors lined up. I only marvel that the queue doesn’t stretch around the block & loop back on itself at least half again as far. There are probably men throwing themselves in front of city buses right outside the hospital doors.
