Excerpt from Looking for Mary Jane Gus Merrifield's father, a millionaire, wants his son to pay an old debt of gratitude by marrying Mary Jane Crabbe, daughter of a former partner. Gus is traveling with two friends, Berkeley (Berk) and Charles. A handsome young opera star, "Carlita" has induced Berk to help her smuggle a Chinaman into the United States in a trunk. Gus receives his father's peremptory order to find Mary Jane at Mrs. Wentworth's boardinghouse and marry her. The three friends find there is a Mary Jane in the house, known however as Marie Varney, a young widow. The boys are hard up. They fix up a plan to have Berk get engaged to Marie under Gus's name, hoping she will break the engagement when she finds the deception. But through Pauline, Mrs. Wentworth's niece, Marie discovers the scheme, and to punish the boys becomes engaged to all three of them. Then the trunk supposed to contain the Chinaman arrives. The boys are afraid of the police. A real Chinaman, "Carlita's" jealous husband, and a smallpox scare add other complications. Berk and Gus have really fallen in love, but the girls won't look at them. Gus's father arrives to find things badly mixed. But it turns out that "Carlita" is the real Mary Jane, that there was no smuggled Chinaman and no smallpox, and the boys are forgiven and happy.

"The best book of the summer." -- InStyle "I LOVED this novel....If you have ever sung along to a hit on the radio, in any decade, then you will devour Mary Jane at 45 rpm." —Nick Hornby Almost Famous meets Daisy Jones & The Six in this "delightful" (New York Times Book Review) novel about a fourteen-year-old girl’s coming of age in 1970s Baltimore, caught between her straight-laced family and the progressive family she nannies for—who happen to be secretly hiding a famous rock star and his movie star wife for the summer. In 1970s Baltimore, fourteen-year-old Mary Jane loves cooking with her mother, singing in her church choir, and enjoying her family’s subscription to the Broadway Showtunes of the Month record club. Shy, quiet, and bookish, she’s glad when she lands a summer job as a nanny for the daughter of a local doctor. A respectable job, Mary Jane’s mother says. In a respectable house. The house may look respectable on the outside, but inside it’s a literal and figurative mess: clutter on every surface, Impeachment: Now More Than Ever bumper stickers on the doors, cereal and takeout for dinner. And even more troublesome (were Mary Jane’s mother to know, which she does not): the doctor is a psychiatrist who has cleared his summer for one important job—helping a famous rock star dry out. A week after Mary Jane starts, the rock star and his movie star wife move in. Over the course of the summer, Mary Jane introduces her new household to crisply ironed clothes and a family dinner schedule, and has a front-row seat to a liberal world of sex, drugs, and rock and roll (not to mention group therapy). Caught between the lifestyle she’s always known and the future she’s only just realized is possible, Mary Jane will arrive at September with a new idea about what she wants out of life, and what kind of person she’s going to be.

"The moment I set eyes on a handsome, rich man I shall marry him." So said Felicity, and as she was the glamorous sister with a successful career as an international model, Mary Jane had no reason to doubt her. Mary Jane was the stay at home with no talents to speak of and a face that never merited a second glance. So it was hardly surprising that Sir Thomas Latimar treated Mary Jane as no more than a future sister-in-law. If only she hadn't been fool enough to fall in love with him... Famous worldwide for her tender romances featuring exciting locales, Dutch doctors and kind people, Betty Neels' stories truly captivate romance readers. These four earlier novels by this esteemed author are a wonderful chance for readers to rediscover the magic of Betty Neels, offering you exceptional sales opportunity. Originally published in 1994.
