The Secret Challenge // Dr. Holly's Surprise — Annie L. Gelsthorpe

Holly Lattimer vowed that any man she married would have to accept her as a capable doctor as well as a pretty young woman -- but so far that man had not appeared. When Holly arrived to take over part of her overworked brother John's medical practice, she ran into the same prejudice she had known in medical school and her hospital residency.

Her brother's partner, handsome Dr. Neil Murray, felt that a woman had no place in private practice. Her patients mistrusted her. And when the victim of a puzzling accident led Holly into a maze of mystery and menace she became the target of terror. Holly Lattimer had to prove herself as a doctor, as a woman, and as a courageous human being before she won the respect she deserved, and the love her heart yearned for.
