About this ebook
Matilda had every quality that turned a man’s head, but she had remained heart-whole and fancy-free despite a number of offers.
Then she met eminent surgeon James Scott-Thurlow and fell in love at first sight. But James clearly did not feel the same way. How could he when he was already engaged to the glamorous Rhoda?
Matilda had every intention of nursing her secret in sensible silence, but fate kept pitching her straight into his path. From coping with broken bones in Dorset to nursing his young goddaughter through the mumps in London, she soon found herself indispensable to his busy household. She had never expected him to kiss her at the garden gate, nor to look quite so formidable while doing it. Yet a quiet seaside sojourn in Devon could hardly change the obstinate truth.
