More Than a Dream — Martha Schroeder

In the midst of war, she found love...

In Victorian England, women were not supposed to read the newspapers, much less travel to dangerous foreign countries. But the women who followed Florence Nightingale onto the battlefields of the Crimean War did just that, earning themselves the sobriquet Angels of Mercy. Now join three spirited nurses as they risk it all to follow their dreams...and their hearts.

SIDE BY SIDE
Catherine Stanhope is a young woman of privilege. Beautiful and gifted, she is one of society's favored daughters--or she would be, if only she would do as expected and marry well, retiring into a world of needlework and child rearing. But Catherine dreams of life as a healer--and she vows that nursing the wounded in the army hospital at Scutari is only the first step. Yet even as she throws herself into the anguishing work, stubborn Dr. Michael Soames seems determined to test her mettle--and tempt her into wishing for something she never thought she wanted...a man's love.
