Love In The Valley

by Susan Napier

Tiny Julia Fry literally bumped into Hugh Walton at their first meeting - and she collided with that monolith with alarming regularity from them on. But Hugh maintained a cool and calm exterior - one that Julia was determined to upset. Why was he so detached - and how could she break through this detachment to bring love and laughter into his life? Was it simply that he was incapable of love? This top New Zealand lawyer is one of the coldest men Julia has ever met. Regardless, she's prepared to love him - IF she can break down his cast-iron emotional barriers. And Hugh makes it clear he prefers the company of the icily beautiful Ann Farrow, who'd never challenge him to reveal any human warmth, or offer him the kind of passion Julia yearns to give him... .
