About this Book
Three Heartfelt summer romance stories by Betty Neels.
A Summer Idyll
When nursing student Phoebe Creswell is left adrift and facing a financial crisis after her aunt’s death, a marriage-of-convenience proposal from Dr. George Pritchard comes as a gift she can’t refuse—even though he’d made it plain that he isn’t in love with her. But with marriage comes certain challenges Phoebe wasn’t anticipating.
Since Phoebe and George both understand the trials of a medical profession, they become friends. Then George starts opening the doors to his heart and home to Phoebe, and she wonders if their marriage might actually stand a chance or if she is being dazed by her own feelings.
An Independent Woman
After losing her parents at a young age, Julia Gracey learned to stand on her own two feet and use her skills to support herself and her sisters independently. But meeting Professor Gerard van der Maes—who always seems to be on hand with the perfect solution—challenges Julia’s determination to solve every problem on her own. And as intent as he is on stealing Julia’s heart, she’s just as adamant that he won’t take over her life. Facing the loss of her home, Julia must learn that opening her vulnerable side, and her heart for love, might be impossible to resist.
An Ideal Wife
When Dr. Thomas Gifford meets doctor’s receptionist Louisa Howarth, he is astounded by her independence and authenticity. While their opposite personalities constantly clash in the workplace—Lousia finds Thomas aloof and demanding, and he finds her too outspoken—they learn to work together, and attraction slowly builds between them. But when Louisa learns about Thomas’s engagement to cold and unsuitable Helena, she takes it upon herself to help him realize he is making a terrible mistake. Louisa thinks she has the perfect matchmaking formula to keep Helena and Thomas apart, but her growing feelings for Thomas might be the factor she wasn’t considering—or the possibility that it wasn’t Helena he wanted to marry after all!
