Description
~~~ first published in 1958 by Mills & Boon
It was with great reluctance that Sarah Knight agreed to impersonate her sister Madalyn on a visit to a South African farm, but in the end she had to agree. All the same, her forebodings were soon justified - for she fell completely and hopelessly in love with a neighbouring farmer, Brent Milward, and had to face the fact that it could never come to anything. How could it? For even if Brent were to be interested in her, which did sometimes seem possible, she must keep up the deception; and that meant going away in Madalyn's good time without ever letting him know her real identity.

He disliked the girl he thought she was
The idea of impersonating her stepsister, Madalyn hadn't seemed so bad back in Johannesburg.
But here in Pietsdorp it was much, much different. Caught up in the life and personalities of this tiny African town, Sarah was feeling the consequences of her deceit.
But mostly she wanted, and yet couldn't, to appeal to Brent Milward -- as herself and for herself. She was in love with a man who didn't even know her name!
Hero: Brent Milward
Heroine: Sarah Knight
