Nurse Kilmer’s Vow

by Virginia C. Holmgren (1963)
Nurse Kilmer's Vow

When lovely young Terry Kilmer was left at the altar by her husband-to-be, Dr. Alex Blaine, her life seemed shattered forever. Blinded by anger, she refused to listen to Alex’s explanations. Though she was a dedicated nurse, Terry vowed she would have nothing more to do with the world of medicine.

Accepting an invitation to the island estate of her much-divorced Aunt Cele, Terry plunged into a dizzying, dazzling social whirl. There were parties and yacht trips, gaiety and laughter — and above all, an irresistibly charming young playboy named Hal Symmes. Then disaster struck the island community — and suddenly Terry was a nurse again, working at the side of a brilliant doctor, her heart torn by a choice between two ways of life, two ways of love. And, amid the greatest challenge of her life, Terry found her path to happiness.

by Beatrice Warren (1984)
Nurse Kristi's Secret

Kristi O’Neil did a fine job as head nurse of the Adventureland Amusement Park first aid department, but her private life was much too quiet. Then she met Keith Chadwick, the hotel executive who turned her whole world into chaos. From the start, Keith was difficult one moment, charming the next. Since he didn’t seem to like children, Kristi did not tell him she was raising her motherless three-year-old brother. Soon Kristi learned that Keith hated deception — of any kind — and she was even more afraid to speak of little Robby, for she did not want to lose this exasperating man. But how much longer could she keep such a secret from him?

Nurse Laurie's Cruise

A delightful and intriguing story of a nurse on a luxurious Caribbean cruise.

A nurse-companion on a Caribbean cruise sounded like fun to Laurie Fielding. But to make sure she got the job, Laurie tried to disguise her blonde loveliness before she went for the interview.

The first person Laurie met on the Bianca was Jeff Anderson, so much the picture of the man every girl hopes to meet on a cruise that Laurie was instantly put on guard.

As they cruised the exotic tropical islands, Laurie found herself paired off with the young professor writing a book on the West Indies and her beautiful employer with the attentive Jeff — with Laurie becoming more and more attracted to Jeff.

A delightful and exciting story of a young nurse in search of adventure — with both danger and love lurking for Laurie in the blue waters of the Caribbean.
