Ten-Story Love v36 #1

A woman named Kitty reflects on her troubled past and her determination to find happiness. After her parents' divorce, she was raised by her mother, who pushed her toward a career in dance and controlled her life, eventually forcing her into an unwanted marriage. Now divorced herself, Kitty is determined to marry a man of her choosing—someone sensible like Jim—and vows never to fall in love again after the pain she has endured. When Jack, a man who has fallen for her, invites her out, her mother's interference and Kitty's own conflicted feelings complicate her efforts to build a new life free from her mother's control.
