Nurse Landon's Challenge — Adelaide Humphries

”You're spoiled, a snob -- in short, the sort of girl who is not much use in the world.”

That's what Doctor Peter Hayes, the young surgeon at Lakefront Hospital, said to Kay Landon the first time they met.

Nothing in Kay's life as the pampered daughter of wealth had prepared her for this sternly dedicated man who was indifferent to her social background and didn't even seem to notice her vibrant attractiveness.

She tried to forget his words in the whirl of pleasure provided by Nicky Fairchild. She even accepted a beautiful big solitaire from Nicky. It did no good. She had to show that arrogant young doctor that she was more than just a lovely doll dressed by the world's most expensive designers.

So Kay Landon enrolled in one of the most difficult and demanding careers open to women. She started training to be a nurse -- and a good one -- at Lakefront Hospital.
