Nurse Judy — Elizabeth Wesley

The excitement, conflict and romance in the life of a lovely and dedicated surgical nurse.

As Nurse Judy Byron worked under the white lights of the operating room, she remembered the words of a wise teacher:

“A good surgical nurse is as important to a surgeon as a steady hand, a keen eye.”

Now, watching the skilled hands of Doctor Peter Clay as they coaxed life back into a still heart of pieced together a shattered skull, the words had a fine, true ring. She was an essential tool in the surgeon's miraculous work.

But Judy Byron the woman could not escape the tensions growing around her, the distrust and hostility between the two chief surgeons, Doctors Murdoch and Clay.
As a nurse she should never take sides, but watching Dr. Clay's steady hands so often clenched in anger as he worked to save Murdoch's patients, she found she cared very much.
As her love grew, Judy Byron knew she must become more than just a surgical tool to Peter Clay.
