Beauty Contest Nurse

Behind the scenes of gaiety and glamour, Maria discovered danger--and unexpected love...

Would the prize be love?

When tawny-eyed Maria MacKenzie sought to escape the routine and regimentation of the Veteran's Hospital, she never expected anything like her job at a luxurious resort hotel in Acapulco. Assigned to the girls in the Miss All-American Beauty Contest, Maria soon discovered that her feminine attributes as a lovely young woman were more important than her nursing skill -- especially with Dick Trevor, the attractive newspaperman covering the contest.

Dr. Mitch Gilbert, her handsome, informal boss, was another surprise; as was Andrew Fisher, the powerful, red-headed doctor who was so mysteriously involved behind the scenes.

One of these men would change the course of Maria's life. Caught up in the heady excitement of her glamorous surroundings, could she trust her heart to make a wise choice?
