Sarah Smith

Making a career goal come true, Sarah has completed her first children's book. The book started out as a short story requirement in an assignment while completing a course at the Institute of Children's Literature. After completing the course, I concentrated on my career in the corporate world. Not feeling fully satisfied with the corporate world and needing the funds to survive, I continued in the corporate world until my retirement in 2012. Always knowing that I wanted to complete my book, I started down the road to accomplish the goal. The dream has finally surfaced again and I'm on my way. Thanks to the help of Smashwords, I have found a way to publish my book on the internet which I've always believe was the best way to get your book to as many readers as possible.

    There is NOTHING clean about this book. I couldn't proceed beyond the 2nd chapter brief as it was. Please remove the epitaph that it is a clean regency romance, it is false and misleading.

CHAPTER 1

''How many more?'' Mary Butterworth asked her colleague.

''More than we can possibly give assistance to,'' she replied.

Mary looked around the hospital and wanted to cry, but she wasn't able. She'd been in Brussels for months, working in the British Military Hospital. There were wounded soldiers everywhere she looked, some of them dying, some of them already dead and a few of them recovering. The hospital had room for sixty patients, on this day, there were multiple times that, and they kept on coming.

Mary was twenty-one years old and passionate about nursing. The Napoleonic Wars had been raging for many years and Mary, an avid reader, had done her best to keep abreast of events from the farm she lived on with her parents and brother. As soon as she was old enough, she'd volunteered to nurse wounded soldiers returning to Britain at a military hospital in London.

She was already perfectly aware of the horrors of war before she was sent to Brussels, but the injuries she saw there were much worse than anything she'd seen in London. There was a simple explanation for that. By the time a soldier had reached London from the battle fields in France, he was most likely going to survive. He'd been given attention and cleaned up by forward medical staff close to the battle. In Brussels, they came straight from the battlefield to the hospital, and Mary saw the absolute worst of it.

It was June 18, 1815, and Mary had been on her feet for twenty hours. The men commanded by Wellington and Napoleon were locked in a bitter struggle at Waterloo. Mary knew, however, that any attempt to sleep would be fruitless. As soon as she closed her eyes, images of such a horrific nature flashed across her mind, that sleep was impossible.

''What's your name soldier?'' Mary asked when the next stretcher was put down in front of her.

''Smith,'' he whispered.

''What's your first name?''

''Daniel.''

''Where are you hurt, Daniel?''

''I don't know. I......'' Daniel drifted away, never to come back.

Mary wasn't upset in the true sense of the word. She'd seen more men die in front of her eyes than she wanted to count. He was
