They Called Her Mrs. Doc

by Janette Oke

4.5 · 224 pages · First published 1992

Cassandra Dell Winston, the pampered daughter of a wealthy Montreal doctor, leaves her refined city life behind when she marries Dr. Samuel Smith, a dedicated young physician who feels called to practice on the rugged Canadian frontier. Ill-prepared for the harsh conditions, extreme isolation, and lack of culture in the small western settlement, Cassandra struggles deeply to adapt. Her marriage is strained by the realization that Sam has no intention of ever returning to Montreal, forcing her to decide whether to abandon him and return to her comfortable past or embrace her new reality. Over a life-spanning narrative, she relies on her growing faith to transform from a self-centered socialite into a resilient, beloved pillar of the frontier community, proudly earning the title "Mrs. Doc."
