Nurse Lea Malvern must choose between her love for her father and the islanders they care for and the writer Noel who has come to research the history of the island.

" In that tone of voice, it sounds like an insult, " she said tartly. " Oh, don't play the innocent! " Orleana snapped. " Jerry and I are engaged! " " Engaged? " Leatrice was astonished. " You heard me. So leave him alone. Just stay away from him. Otherwise -- "Orleana's voice flatten to a warning" -- there'll be trouble. For you.
