Melanie Blake is in a dreamy, yet unlikely situation: she is madly in love with Rick Vandraaton, who is the charming son of a millionaire. Would it be possible for Rick to want to be with an ordinary woman like Melanie, who is filling in as his secretary, when he has the elegant Diane Fairchild almost wrapped around his finger? Yet Melanie has an advantage, as she knows some of Diane’s secrets that would certainly make her look bad in Rick’s eyes. The question is, would revealing them also ruin Melanie’s chances with the millionaire bachelor of her dreams? The intriguing story written in the 20th century under one of Ida Pollock’s pseudonyms, Pamela Kent, offers a romance for the love-hungry reader.
