By Ruth Clemence
When her fiance Peter died a few days before their wedding Ismay was completely shattered — but not for the usual reasons. Overlying her natural grief at Peter’s death were feelings of guilt and — yes — relief; for Ismay had known that she did not love Peter as much as she ought and had lacked the courage to let him down at the last moment. The offer of a job in the Lake District, looking after an invalid teenager, came just at the right moment, for in the peace and beauty of those hills Ismay felt she could get her sense of values back. But she soon found that she had only exchanged one uncomfortable situation for another, for all too soon she found herself falling in love with Lewis Kynoch, who was not for her. For after all, even if there had not been his beautiful Felicity as a barrier between them, what reason did Lewis have for thinking of her as anything but a capable nurse?
