Retreat into Paradise (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

City girl Hannah Stockton writes histories as her day job and family histories in her spare time. Needing a temporary escape from a violent boyfriend, she takes up an advertised position as a live-in caretaker 'with light duties' at a country retreat outside Melbourne. The owner, Philip Boulton, is a hunky high-flying banker who visits on weekends to attend to his small herd of cattle.

Hannah is dismayed to discover that Philip has been taught all he knows about farming by his next-door neighbour, who lusts after Philip and resents Hannah's presence. Hannah can't tell whether Philip is 'more than friends' with his guru.

Philip has recently discovered a family secret. Given his profession, he's sensitive about this fact becoming public. Fearing Hannah's skills as a family history researcher, he keeps her at a distance while he processes his secret.

Meanwhile, as her 'boss', he helps Hannah to overcome her fear of cattle and she learns to love country life … and Philip.

Autorenporträt

Louisa Valentine writes 'sweet romance' stories. She married young and expected to have one husband and three children - but life got in the way and it turned out to be the other way around. Another surprise came with her four grandchildren - two sets of twins, born a year apart, now teenagers. The complications of family life have proved a rich resource for her as a writer. She has also lived and worked in many places around the world and enjoys evoking the 'feel' of these places in the settings she chooses for her books. Her themes so far? A love triangle. A secret baby. Infertile couples. Star-crossed lovers longing for something - and someone - seemingly out of reach. Second chances. All definitely fiction, not fact!
