After being jilted with Phil, Fay’s friend Jean suggests a holiday together at Goldsands Camp. After initially refusing, Fay later heads off alone. She is soon charmed by camp host Mike Sanders, despite her determination to hate all men. Then she receives a letter from Jean telling how she met Mike and got on with him in a very special way. Angry at being just another holiday romance, Fay confronts Mike while rowing on the lake. She upends the boat and, before saving her, Mike admits that his love is for real this time and forces Fay to admit she loves him.
