For
Olivia Harding, the offer of employment at an exclusive private girl's school
had come as something of a godsend. With little experience, she hadn't expected
to find a job so easily, let alone one that still bought her into contact with
her former boss, the eminent Dutch surgeon, Haso van der Eisler.
Of course, his
frequent visits to the school had more to do with his goddaughter, Nel, than
her own limited attractions. Nel was a lonely fatherless girl and that Haso
should marry her glamorous mother seemed obvious to all but Olivia's stubborn
heart.
