Cyrus Williams believes that he’s found the love of his life in a young nurse, Eunice Daley.  A chance meeting after a hospital appointment was all it took for him to want to spend the rest of his life with her.   Like Eunice, Cyrus has recently arrived in London from the West Indies and is having to learn how to navigate all kinds of relationships in a strange new world. But the course of true love doesn’t run smoothly for Cyrus and the constraints of starting out again in England, as well as the disapproval of friends, is as much of a challenge as Eunice herself.
