A penniless nurse, a high-handed Dutch surgeon, and a proposal that promises everything except romance.
When Jane needed help, she was amazed that it was the charismatic surgeon Nikolaas van der Vollenhove who tore himself away from his busy schedule to come to her rescue. Left homeless after her grandmother’s death, she had to shield her corgi and two cats from a spiteful cousin.
Taking a gruelling post in Carlisle kept them safe, but fourteen nights on duty left her worn to a shadow. Could she really put her trust in the haughty professor who drove through the night just to carry her off to London?
A renowned workaholic, it was obvious that he had no time for anything—or anyone—in his life. Which was why his marriage proposal came as such a shock. He offered a peaceful country home in Holland, room for her faithful housekeeper, and a strictly sensible partnership.
How could she accept a businesslike arrangement when her heart demanded so much more? Just why exactly did he want Jane for his wife, if it wasn't for love?
