(no dust jacket) [solid copy, minor bumping/wear at several corners, spine very slightly turned]. "Beautiful Hope Lawrence, debutante niece of socially prominent Mrs. Gwendolyn Meredyth Lawrence, was expected to make a brilliant marriage. Instead, she fell in love with a red-headed newspaper reporter, Peter Neal, who admitted he loved her, but would not ask her to marry him. Hope does the asking and nothing her aunt nor her wealthy suitor nor Marta Jennings, the girl Peter had loved, can think of was successful in keeping them apart. Only marriage to Peter wasn't easy for a girl trained to riches. Hope tries desperately to live on Peter's salary, but can't. Secretly, she goes to work for a famous French designer, wearing beautiful clothes and being seen in them at smart places."
