About the book
Harry Butterworth was a very attractive man - Mickey had always known that. He was also her stepbrother, and her very best friend. So, although there wasn't much to work with in that remote spot in the Adirondack mountains, Mickey was determined to find the right girl for Harry before she herself got married. Yet as time went on she wished she had never taken on the job - not only was Harry being remarkably uncooperative, but she was no longer so sure that it was a good idea. It was taking so much of her attention that she seemed to be thinking about Harry more often than she remembered George, the man she was supposed to marry!
