About the book
Julie Beckworth enjoyed her work as a medical secretary at Saint Bravo's hospital in London, so it was a nasty surprise when her elderly boss, Professor Smythe, announced that he was retiring. After a moment's panic, she was partly reassured when told Professor Simon van der Driesma was willing to keep her on, but Simon turned out to be a very different proposition. He was younger, more energetic, and worked Julie much harder--all of which she could have accepted if he would only call her Julie, and not "Miss Beckworth" in that cool voice! Both of them had the wrong impression of the other--what would it take for the truth to be revealed?
