Synopsis: The Cable Car Operator & The Wealthy American - An upper class young woman in Quebec has a lifelong dream of being the first woman cable car operator in San Francisco; and when she meets a rich American at her debutante party, her dreams are quickly realized. However, it’s a much harsher reality that meets her, both on the job and with her burgeoning love for the man who is winning her heart.
Olivia Claire Westmont pulled the heavy wool coat tighter around her neck against the harsh Canadian wind that enveloped her. She hated the cold and Canada - neither of them suited her for many reasons. Since her family had moved here from France ten years earlier, she waited anxiously for her twenty-first birthday and the freedom that monumental day would bring her. Today was that day.
She slipped into the dress boutique where her mother had sent Olivia for a fitting. The potential dress was her first full formal, a garb suitable for the lavish debutante party her parents were throwing for her later in the evening. Olivia didn’t like the idea, but sometimes it was easier to go along with something than to fight it. This was one of those times.

she said in French, assuming the clerk would not be bilingual. I’m here for a fitting.
Name?
the clerk answered in a curt English accent, intentionally curt, Olivia was sure. Often, people were insulted at the use of the French language in common business transactions because more of the residents of Quebec spoke English than French. When customers spoke French, it appeared they were insinuating something, though most often, they weren’t.
Olivia Westmont,
she answered just as curtly, and in English.

the clerk said. I’ll bring the seamstress out to you. One moment.
The girl disappeared into another room, the door closing behind her. Olivia could hear their muffled voices. In a minute of two, the seamstress appeared.
Good morning,
she said in French. How may I help you?
The last phrase was in English.
Olivia instantly decided to stop the game and spoke from that point on in English.
I’m to be fitted for a dress I’m wearing tonight. My mother sent me down to try it on, and to bring it home if the fitting is right.
Sure, come with me, Miss Westmont.
Olivia noted that the seamstress had not been told her last name by her, so she knew that the clerk had said it. Nonetheless, she let it go and followed her through the same door and into a separate fitting room. In a moment, the woman brought the dress to her.
Olivia dressed in it and found it fit perfectly. She stepped out of the private room and into a central room where the seamstress waited. After carefully checking the
