Product Description

Product Description

It is 1962 and Rhian, Aideen, Isobel and Deely meet for the first time to start nurse training in Belfast. During the next three years they struggle with the strict and demanding work, form close friendships, have affairs, and fall in love. Rhian's relationship with an older man causes tension and conflict, and threatens to destroy her friendship with Aideen. Aideen is pretty and fun loving, but she has a secret which she guards from the others. Isobel, who is stylish and rich, falls in love with a man her mother dislikes, and is pressured into a course of action she regrets. Deely, too, is led to do something she regrets and is forced to leave the hospital early. At the end of the three years, Rhian, Aideen and Isobel have survived the rigorous training but are sad to leave the group. Their sadness, though, is outweighed by their romantic and professional plans for the future.

Lavender Blue 23 Oct 2010
Format:Paperback
Anyone who was in nurse training in the 1960's will enjoy this book, or anyone who enjoys a good tale.

In 1962, Rhian, Aideen, Isobel and Deely commence nurse training in Belfast.
Three of them survive the training, but inbetween they live their lives, make decisions, make mistakes and plan their futures. I loved it and read it in Three days. Very well written and interesting. Rosie Law.

Nurses in school and love 26 Sep 2011
By Victoria - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Lavender Blue gives us medical romance written in intelligent yet easy to read text. I looked forward to reading it every night. The stories of the 4 student nurses were fun and memorable. The excitement of their training and romances kept me reading. I think everyone should read this book.
