It should have been her dream of happiness coming true. Joanne had worked very well with Dr. Grant as his nurse. After marriage, the question was, "Could she accept a loveless marriage?" Marriage to the eminent Dr. Daniel Grant was to be for mutual convenience. "Love doesn't enter into our agreement," he had informed her dispassionately. "Besides, love is a fabricated emotion and I have no time for it. What I'm offering will be purely and simply a business arrangement to last no longer than a year."
