When her fiancé jilted her, Serena gave up all hope of ever getting married. She was determined to be sensible about the whole thing; that was, until Gijs suggested that she marry him. She liked Gijs and he was fond of her. Companionship seemed a good a basis for a marriage – who needed romance? But Gijs was in love and Serena couldn't work out who the lucky woman was… Letitia Marsden never trusted men. Then she met Dr Jason Mourik van Nie and he changed her mind. Learning to trust again wasn't easy for either of them. Letitia vowed there would be a happy ending. But then Jason got the wrong idea about one of her male friends… Could a chance meeting set it right? Surely fate wasn't going to let a simple misapprehension stand in the way of true love? Matilda had beauty and generous nature – it was surprising that she was still single. Despite many offers, she remained fancy–free. Until she met James Scott–Thurlow – it was love at first sight! He was the only man she'd ever wanted to marry! But as luck would have it, James was already engaged – to the glamorous Rhoda. And it was clear he hadn't fallen for Matilda...

To keep her family together, Isobel Barrington made ends meet (barely!) by doing private nursing jobs. She shouldn't have had time to fall for Dr. Thomas Winters, but she did. She also knew she should try to forget him- but that was easier said than done.

"Would you like me for a brother-in-law, Mary Jane?" She wouldn't like him for a brother-in-law -- she would like him for a husband! But why should she suddenly discover this now of all times, sitting opposite him, being cross-examined as though she were in a witness-box . . .and fighting an urge to fling her arms around his neck and tell him that she loved him? "Yes, oh yes, that would be delightful."

Heaven Around The Corner by Betty Neels released on Aug 02, 2005 is available now for purchase.

It was deeply irritating to Leonora Crosby that she was always caught out in awkward moments by the new village doctor, James Galbraith. It shouldn't have mattered - she was engaged to Tony, after all - But James proved a stalwart support as Leonora did her best to keep her parents' decrepit but much-loved manor house running smoothly. All this made her begin to doubt the wisdom of her engagement. But there was little point in admitting that she loved James, when he showed so little sign of caring for her...

"The man I marry must dote on me..." Rosie already knew the sort of man she wanted to marry--and Fergus Cameron couldn't be further from that ideal! Arrogant and determiend to always get his own way, he was much too sure of himself for Rosie's peace of mind. Yet he had also made it clear that he, too, had decided on the gir he wanted to marry... but did his plans include her? Only time would tell.

Sophy's relationship with the attractive Duth surgeon Maximillan Oosterwelde was of the blow-hot-blow-cold variety-but one thing was certain: in her heart, Sophy did not want any "blow cold" at all!

Georgina Rodman had been given a special nursing assignment--she was to look after the Van den Berg Eyffert children, who were recovering from an accident. Having worked in a casualty ward, Georgina felt she could cope with just about anything life threw at her. But that was before she met the children's guardian, Julius. Afterward, she realized that even common sense and a practical nature couldn't stop her from falling in love...with a man who didn't even know she existed

Unlike her two sisters, Lucy was happier at home - if only she could find Mr. Right to share it with! But when she had almost given up her search for such a man, the eminent pediatrician William Thurloe came into her life. Attractive and dynamic, he was the answer to her dreams. But why would he be interested in her when the glamorous Fiona made it clear she was also available?
