About the book
For Olivia Harding, the offer of employment at an exclusive private girl's school had come as something of a godsend. With little experience, she hadn't expected to find a job so easily, let alone one that still bought her into contact with her former boss, the eminent Dutch surgeon, Haso van der Eisler. Of course, his frequent visits to the school had more to do with his goddaughter, Nel, than her own limited attractions. Nel was a lonely fatherless girl and that Haso should marry her glamorous mother seemed obvious to all but Olivia's stubborn heart.
