About this ebook
Australian tycoon Mark Hannaford closed himself off from the world after losing his wife…until Sylvie Browning waltzed into his home.
He hired the gutsy gal to bring order to his life. Instead she brought chaos and laughter. She took on the stubborn recluse with home-baked muesli, quirky decor, and sheer impudence.
Soon the inventor found his quiet Balmain mansion turned upside down by vegetable lasagne and midnight chatter. He struck a deal to teach the barefoot spitfire how to waltz in his ballroom in exchange for home-cooked dinners.
Before long, Sydney’s most guarded bachelor finds himself rushing home each evening just to spin his housekeeper across the floorboards.
Behind the closed doors of his waterfront estate, can he keep his distance from the only woman who remembers who he used to be?

WARNING & SPOLIERS: The characters are great, and the story is different from the usual I think. However people should be warned in case they don't want to read something kind of sad. In their pasts are deaths by cancer, and there was rape as well in her past that still haunts her. So if your looking for a light fun romance this probably isn't it.
