She tried to laugh, tried to laugh scornfully; for indeed she was filled with scorn for this sudden inexplicable weakness, a weakness which had never assailed her before in all her life, a weakness which filled her breast with rage; but from under the closed lids two tears crept and rolled down her cheek; and against her will she made confession of this same foolish weakness.

Stafford Orme goes to visit his father's new house in the countryside (incidentally, the descriptions of the landscape are rather delicious!), and he meets Ida, a neighbor girl who is managing her father's farm. He has never been attracted to anyone before, but of course he falls in love with her at first sight, which means it must be The Real Thing.
Other people... happen. Things get messed up and people get miserable, but of course hero and heroine will always rise above, act nobly, and be rewarded. I have no problems with a good old-fashioned melodrama, but in this case it felt too much like the author was ticking off boxes on his checklist. ( )
