| Summary | "Love Stories" by Mary Roberts Rinehart is a collection of fictional short stories likely written in the early 20th century. The stories in this volume revolve around themes of romance and personal growth, with an emphasis on the complexities of love and human connections. The opening story introduces N. Jane Brown, a young nurse, and Mr. Middleton, a wounded man in her care, setting the stage for exploring their developing relationship amidst their struggles. The beginning of the book presents the initial meeting between N. Jane Brown, a probationary nurse, and Mr. Middleton, who is recovering from a severe injury in the hospital due to a warehouse accident. As Jane tends to him, they engage in light banter while he invents a backstory involving a fictional love, Mabel, to impress her, reflecting his insecurities and desire for connection. Meanwhile, Jane grapples with the realities of her nursing duties, including coping with the death of a patient, which adds depth to her character. This exploration of their interactions hints at a potential romance while highlighting their personal challenges and responsibilities within the hospital setting.
