After she had broken their engagement, Harriet's ex-fiance, Kevin, had angrily called her "an immature Daddy's darling", but the truth was that she wanted freedom from his autocratic ways. But when faced with a series of shattering disillusionments about her beloved father, Harriet wished she could heal the break in her relationship with Kevin. Dare she take that step - and would he still want her, now that he had the attentions of a beautiful, sophisticated American to console him?
