Emily's Quest

Emily knows she’s going to be a great writer. She’s as certain of that as she is that she and her childhood sweetheart, Teddy Kent, will conquer the world together. But when Teddy leaves home to pursue his goal of becoming an artist at the School of Design in Montreal, Emily’s world collapses. With Teddy gone and her dream of publishing her first novel in tatters, Emily agrees to marry a man she doesn’t love. But can she really forget her feelings for Teddy? And will she ever regain her desire to write?
