1 The Story of a Wager A. C. D. , 1895 single work short story romance
— Appears in: The Australian Journal , March vol. 30 no. 358 1895; (p. 386-390) Well-written Anglo-American romance. Beautiful cold Florida-born Gabrielle Ryan wagers with her hard scornful fiancee Robert Vaughan to win the true heart of London QC Oliver Adonais for a pair of gloves. In the process she wins his heart and loses her own. Her pride and determination to win ruins both their lives and his rising career. Engaging depiction of awakening love between them. Brief references to the 'oddness' of American women. (PB)
