About the book
Marisa and her young brother Tony were alone in the world, and life was not being too easy. It seemed the last straw when Tony got into serious trouble, and when Cesare Gianelli suddenly came on the scene and offered his help, Marisa was only too thankful to accept it. There was one condition, however - Cesare wanted her to marry him. Where did she go from there, though? For although she very rapidly fell in love with her new husband, he made it clear that all he wanted was a competent housekeeper. Could she ever expect to find happiness with him?
