Staff Nurse (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781479427420)

Nurse Judith Morley seemed cool and poised, with a flower-like beauty that was almost untouchable. But nobody at the hospital knew of the cloud that hung over her, filling her heart with fear and loathing. Judith's terrible secret made her swear never to marry and to devote her life to the care of the sick. She tried to lose herself in the agonies of her sick patients, to realize the shallowness of society before the stark reality of the death she faced every day.

Life has a way of taking over, however, and Nurse Morley soon found that she was involved in the ruthless ambitions of others in the hospital. She could no longer retreat when one of the cleverest doctors jilted her, or when the town's social leaders tried to use her for a pawn. Still, her fear was so powerful that she nearly gave up all chance of happiness in the struggle to live down the past.
