Pretty Christina was deliriously happy. She was to marry the man of her dreams, the fabulously handsome and wealthy Vincent Gayland. In spite of Lady Gayland's hostility towards her son's fiancée, the wedding duly took place. The young couple were returning from their honeymoon when the blow fell. Chris was badly injured in a car crash and forced to endure a long convalescence. She faced the situation with her usual steadfast cheeriness - though Chris' injuries weren't permanent, they were debilitating enough to she couldn't fulfill his dashing husband's needs - and so he turned his eyes to another woman... His "old friend" Gail Bishop, was a fascinating and unscrupulous woman, and it was a liaison which her mother-in-law is in favour of, and she encouraged.... Soon, Chris suspected the truth about Vincent, and it could cut short their gaiety - and perhaps their love.
