The Doctor's Sweetheart

In this remarkable collection of fourteen  previously uncollected stories, L.M. Montgomery weaves  her unique brand of magic as she explores the  private passions of the heart. A country doctor never  loses faith in the young woman who swears to return  to him; a beautiful maiden, in a fit of pique,  recklessly pledges to marry the very first man who  asks her; an estranged wife bets her future happiness  on a horse race; two maiden ladies, scared onto a  roof by a dog, ponder marriage to the dog's owner  as the price of rescue. These are some of the  unforgettable characters whose stories--of romance and  friendship reconciliation and abiding love--live  again in an anthology L.M. Montgomery readers will  treasure.
