A Risky Business

She had not planned to risk her heart

Independent Merle Halliday was not prepared to settle for a tame office job. She craved excitement from life first -- and She those well.

As an oil scout in the Alberta wilderness, Merle took chances to get her information. But she soon discovered just how risky her business was when she began spying on Leon Crane's No. 3 pt. 14 well.

The shrewd, self-made millionaire proved an even match for the determined Merle. Did he make her fall in love with him -- wholly and irrevocably -- just to protect his precious oil wells? Or did he really care?

Hero: Leon Crane
