The Girl From Sherman Oaks — Arlene Hale

HEARTACHE...

A broken romance brought Enid Sherman home from New York -- home to Sherman Oaks with its gently-rolling hills, its horses, its white-pillared mansion echoing the Old South. Here there would be nothing to remind her of advertising man Drew Benedict, who swore he loved her yet would not marry her. Here there would be time to mend her heart...in peace. But that peace was soon disrupted -- by Bryce Courtney, the attractive "mystery man" who had rented a cottage on the estate; by her old beau, Alston Archibald, still very much in love with her; by her sister, Dolores, jealous of Enid's beauty and independence...and by Drew. Hard as she tried, Enid could not forget him. Then Alston asked her to marry him and she knew that she must see Drew again...before she could put him out of her life forever.
