About the book
Hired by telegram—and by mistake. Valancy Adam-Smith had never even heard of novelist Godfrey Carmichael when she applied by wire for the job as his secretary. So his fury when he discovered "V. Adam-Smith" was female both startled and intrigued her. Who were the women who had so bitterly disillusioned him? And why, Valancy wondered, should it matter to her that Godfrey's former fiancée had returned to New Zealand, obviously hoping for a reconciliation.
