Nurses of New York Boxed Set
(2021)(A book in the Nurses of New York series)
An omnibus of novels by Amelia C Adams
This boxed set contains all the volumes in the beloved Nurses of New York series in one!
Sea of Strangers - 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?
Cause of Conflict - Sophie Jones, nursing student, is a spirited girl who struggles with some of the practical elements of her job, such as keeping the rules and cleaning up anything unpleasant. She would much rather focus on bringing light into the lives of her patients through her cheerful outlook.
Dr. Edward Gregory is afflicted with demons both physical and emotional. He takes his role as a physician so seriously that he often forgets to celebrate his successes, and he demands perfection from his nurses just as he does himself.
When the two are assigned to work together as part of Sophie's training, it seems they will never get along, but a common goal may just be the key to unlocking their conflict.
Touch of Tenderness - Nursing student Libby Green is devoted to her studies and loves the work she does, but she very much dislikes the role nurses play in the medical field. She wishes she had the chance to make a real difference, to share her opinion, to be heard rather than overlooked. When her mentor suggests that there just might be a way for that to happen, she realizes that perhaps she's not meant to be a nurse, but a doctor instead.
Composer and pianist Lewis Franklin has come to New York seeking inspiration and maybe even a position with an orchestra. When an accident robs him of his sight, he leans on his music to hold him up during this uncertain time - his music, and a kind nurse with a gentle touch.
Fate brought them together - now will fate tear them apart?
Heart of Hearts - Irene Cantrell has been Dr. Russell's head nurse for seven years. She can't imagine any other life than working at his side, but a young man from her past shows up in New York City and makes it clear that he's still interested, and she can't help but be flattered.
Frank Russell has been one of New York's preeminent surgeons, but something's wrong with his hand, putting his career in jeopardy. When medicine is all he's ever known, how can he hope to create a new life for himself?
As a doctor, Frank has relied on his nurse for everything, but this is a problem she can't solve. Together, however, maybe they can forge a new path.
Test of Time - Dr. Phillip Wayment never wanted to get married, and he never wanted a nurse. He was always happiest on his own without entanglements. But all that changed when he met Jeanette Peterson, and he found himself not only engaged, but supporting her as she trained to become a nurse . . . and his assistant.
Jeanette's course of study in New York is almost over - in three weeks, she will graduate with her nursing certificate and return home to Topeka, where Phillip has been waiting. But she's been gone for six months, and so much can happen in that span of time. She's changed since she left - what if he doesn't want her anymore? And has he changed too?
