Irish Rose — Jacqueline Marten

IF THE RED-HEADED IRISH ROSE THOUGHT SHE HAD GOT THE BETTER OF HIM, SHE HAD NEVER BEEN MORE MISTAKEN.

David Fenton had first laid eyes on Miss Janet Rosellen when she was but "half-past fifteen." He waited two years to claim her heart and her hand.

But even then obligations to her family prevented envy from marrying David and when he left to rejoin the Navy, Jenny's happiness went with him. Now he is the Earl of Denby and he is determined that this time he shall possess the Irish Rose.

Hero: David Fenton, Earl of Denby
Heroine: Miss Janet "Jenny" Rosellen
