Sea of Strangers (Nurses of New York Book 1)

After escaping the abusive clutches of their uncle, Jeanette Peterson and her sister, Abigail, make new lives for themselves as waitresses at the Brody Hotel in Topeka. It’s not long, though, before Jeanette realizes a new passion—she wants to go to nursing school. Her fiancé, Dr. Phillip Wayment, arranges for her to spend six months training with his mentor in New York City with the promise that she will return and marry him at the end of that time.

Her education is complicated and sometimes overwhelming, and Jeanette often feels all alone. Phillip’s love is the only thing that carries her through when the pressures become too difficult. And when the time comes to make the toughest decision of all, will she choose justice or mercy out of many shades of gray?
