The Trembling Hills - Phyllis A. Whitney

Nick was impersonally grateful for her help and always courteous. Sometimes she even worked with him in the evening, though he made it clear that he regarded her contribution as something she gave to the people of San Francisco, and not to him.

Sara, however, knew this was not altogether so. Being a woman, it was Nick whom she must serve first.

 

Yeah, the whole lovestory aspect of this book doesn´t work for me:

 

 

Sara is in love with Nick, Nick might be in love with Sara as well (I hope he isn´t), even though he is kind of in a relationship with a person, who is a much nicer person than Sara. But then Sara did something incredibly stupid and now Nick doesn´t like her anymore.    

  

Oh, and as for Richie: Sara has finally found out that he is an idiot.

 

Honestly, at this point I´m doing a lot of eye rolling whenever something of this relationship stuff comes up in the novel.
