A perfect wife?
Everyone in Mary's family agreed that she would make some man a perfect wife one day. She had plenty of practice keeping house for an unworldly scholar father and a mother painting Christmas cards. Her days were devoted to soothing domestic crises, not chasing romance!
Mary's problem was that the only man she had ever even thought about marrying was eminent heart specialist Roel van Rakesma. But it had been clear from the start that any attention Professor van Rakesma paid her was purely professional. His only interest was in curing frail hearts, not mending broken ones!
When a financial swindle empties the family purse, she takes a grueling job minding two unruly children across the Heath. Managing the youngsters demanded stubborn endurance, not tender sentiments!
The imposing professor persistently reappears, securing her a quieter post at a London bookshop and offering rides beside his terrier, Richard. Mary must guard her heart, particularly with an elegant Dutch rival claiming his hand.
Can Mary convince the guarded Dutch professor that some hearts are worth mending after all?
