When the Heart Is Young // When a Nurse Is Young — Lilian Chisholm

Until the day Nurse Lora Wincot met Doctor Colin Laystall she believed herself completely satisfied with her life.

It was only when, quite unexpectedly, she was called upon to assist him in an operation, that she realized her life had been lacking in love and companionship. For a brief time thereafter it seemed to Lora that she was being offered a happiness of which she had never dreamed, but very soon her rosy dreams were destined to fade, like morning mist before the sun.

This is the story of a girl who was suddenly shown a new meaning to life, who reached out to grasp it, found the vision a mirage, and yet battled on again, seeking to recapture that vision she had seen.
