About the book
A perfect wife? Everyone in her family had agreed that Mary Pagett would one day make some man a perfect wife. The problem was that the only man Mary had ever even thought about marrying was eminent Dutch heart specialist Roel van Rakesma. From the moment he had walked into her life Mary had become quite contrary -- turning from a practical girl into a hopeless romantic. But it had been clear from the start that any attention Professor van Rakesma paid her was purely professional. Professor van Rakesma's only interest was In curing frail hearts, not broken ones!
