About this book

Richard was coming home! When Valentine first met Doctor Gaston Lamoine, the famous neurologist, she found herself provoked by his remark that they were both ships that pass in the night. The remark didn't say very much for the impression she had made on him. But why should this bother her? For as long as Valentine could remember, Richard Sterne had been the most important person in her life. But he had loved only the beautiful Roxanne, whose disappearance had left him rootless and restless. Now Roxanne had returned, intent on marrying Richard, but Richard's reaction to her no longer mattered to Valentine. For now she had met Dr. Gaston Lamoine, the man who showed her what it was like to really love. Yet Roxanne seemed to have a hold on Gaston, too!
