New York: Palace Promotions by Arrangement with Phoenix Press, 1943. Softcover. Good. First edition by this publisher, "condensed slight from the original." Digest size paperback. 128pp. Dampstain in the right-hand margin of the pages throughout, just touching a small percentage of the text, small chips and tears on the wrappers, thus good only in illustrated wrappers, but presentable and attractive with excellent cover art of a rather come-hither maid by L.B. Cole, noted for his Golden Age comic book covers. No. 2 in the publisher's Love Romance Series, *OCLC* locates a single copy of this racy pulp romance (at Bowling Green), although other books published for the Phoenix Press by Brewster are held, no copy of the original of this title is, and perhaps it was re-titled when condensed and issued by this publisher.
