About the book
Simon Leigh was the centre of a gentle conspiracy on the part of his female relatives — a conspiracy with no more sinister an object than to get him to marry and settle down at his family's lovely old home, Craigwood, instead of wandering about the remoter parts of the globe. And why shouldn't he? Women seemed to like him, after all — except for Pat Gordon, his sister-in-law's secretary. And as luck would have it, it was Pat who was called on to help show him how agreeable English country life could be. But Pat found the task extremely difficult, since she and Simon somehow struck sparks from each other whenever they met!
