Sweethearts #62

When a young typist named Kathy is publicly criticized by Clayton Hedrick—a man she's fallen for—she resolves to transform herself, enrolling in college to study business, drama, and style until she becomes the educated, cultured woman she feels she needs to be. Over three grueling years of self-improvement, she reinvents herself completely, becoming a campus queen and savvy entrepreneur—all while quietly nursing her determination to prove herself to the man who once dismissed her as common and impossible. Now poised on the brink of success, Kathy prepares to see whether all her sacrifice and hard work will finally matter.
