About the book
Her quiet life was thrown into turmoil Calm and capable - those were the words used to sum up Francesca. Certainly she had plenty to cope with, looking after the home she shared with three elderly aunts and working at the local hospital. Yet she dealt with it all with her usual quiet efficiency and believed her life was complete...until Dr. Litrik van Rijgen arrived! Having taken the trouble to track her down while she was enjoying a holiday in Holland, he seemed to have other plans for her. But was she really willing to let him take over her life and possibly her heart?
