Misconception — Margaret Pargeter

Miranda knew better than to protest at Brett Deakin's high-handed manner. The less she said, she decided grimly, the sooner this ridiculous charade might be over. Sooner rather than later he was going to tire of wasting both his time and his pity on an ungrateful, crippled girl, and she would be the first to sigh with relief!

Brett Deakin studied Miranda broodingly. As soon as he had seen her he'd known she was going to mean something in his life. That in some way she was going to be instrumental in laying the ghost which had bothered him for so long. How had not been clear to him before. But it was now. He would marry her!
