    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.

    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.
