Tired of working at the Kansas City hospital, April Asbury moves to Fertile, MO, to be a small town nurse. She immediately becomes involved with the lives of the local community, especially of the Jones family. Joe Jones is very attracted to her, but his charming ways scares April, because he reminds her of the father who abandoned her and her mother. She thinks he is a flirt, who is just leading her along. A community scandal, conflict with black and white racial conditions, local flooding and a scorned town gossip fill in the background. Very enjoyable read, set in the early 1900's.
