About the book
Varnie Sutton is startled when she comes home to find a man in her bedroom - and even more so when she realises that the man is leon beaumont - her brother's boss! Leon's using Varnie's country house as a bolthole from the media - but when Varnie discovers that her brother's job is at risk if she doesn't let him stay, they're stuck with each other! Especially when it's splashed across the front pages of every newspaper that the couple have just got engaged . . .
