by Betty Neels

He was the answer to all her prayers Matilda worked as a nurse in her uncle's busy small-town medical practice. Though she found caring for her patients satisfying, Tilly was well aware of her need for something greater. Little did she suspect that her chance meeting with Dr. Rauwerd van Kempler would change her life. She had sensibly agreed to his proposal, only to find herself becoming far from sensibly involved. Reality intruded just when she needed Rauwerd's great strength, and she was forced to discover her own. The doctor might be out saving lives--but Tilly was fast losing her patience!
