About the book
The future held no bright prospects Melissa's wealthy cousin Helen tried to pressure her into a loveless marriage, so Melissa fled back to her Cornish home. There she found that the small market garden business leased by her mother and stepfather had declined during her six absent years. Now it was nearly bankrupt! Worse still, their landlord, the handsome, aggressive Ryan Trevelyan, was demanding the three years' back rent--unless Melissa agreed to his despicable plan. She found herself trapped between concern for her mother, and Ryan--a man who had set himself to run her life!
