The Searching Heart — Barbara Steiner

Laura has always known what she wants to do-
become a veterinarian. Even before she finishes
high school, she applies for an after-school
job at a veterinary clinic. But then her
life changes dramatically. The doctor she
works for is Jed Jordan, warm, caring…
and twenty-five years old. Before Laura and
Jed know what's happening, they fall in
love. Laura is delighted…and frightened.
Her parents don't approve of Jed because
he's older. And Laura worries because she's
miserable when she's apart from him.
How can she go away to college now? What
will become of her dreams? And what will
become of her tender relationship with
Jed.
