Her First Trophy. By J. See LEE.
Harriet Lake, indolent by nature, takes up golf to improve health and gains more than fitness.

A pair of confessions follows as a budding romance unfolds at a married couple’s lawn party and a conservatory supper. Harriet discovers she is in love, with Billy hopeful for a future yes.
