Isn't it romantic when a mature man knows what he wants in a wife and is willing to wait for it? The heroine was a capable, independent, caring, selfless but naive sort, just what the hero needed. He is the anchor she needs. Of course there is the antagonist the Medusa who is out to make mischief and the protagonist the heroine's friend and coworker who has set her heel to Medusa's hair. ***Spoiler Alert*** I must say miracles occurred on two occasions when the heroine chose flight over fight. She didn't haul off and literally pop her husband one when he unfavorably compared her to her nemesis or when his feelings were hurt because she, reacting in the same derogatory manner as he had, accused him of something without knowing the whole story. The woman had fortitude. The moral echoing throughout Ms. Neels' books is that forthright communication is the key to a happy marriage.

As a faithful reader of all of Betty Neels work, I can only say she delivers a sweet romance with charm and grace, and the happy ending I am looking for in this type of romance. A book that offers a bit of fantasy for everyday ordinary people, but not so far out of the realm of reality.

I read a lot of Betty Neels books years ago and when I came across this one I couldn't resist - sometimes you should really leave old memories alone. Seems, my memories are definitely tied to how life was lived 30+ years ago!

This wasn't a bad book but it was a bit boring, not Ms. Neels fault, times have changed and writing has a lot more umph! than it had back then. Even the "sweet" romances have a lot more action than this book.

Ms. Neels definitely had a formula and it never changed. The storyline was interesting and the story was well told, I just wasn't crazy about the characters.

I have now read every one of the many books the this author wrote. I find them easy read and great to pick up when you need a time out from your busy life. The stores are written in a different time and place. Life was so much nicer and the little things seemed to mean more ,even though times were hard.

I love all the old fashioned sweet romances by Betty Neels. I read them all many years ago and am now reading them for the 2nd and even 3rd times on my Kindle. She wrote them all on a formula. Usually a romance between a Dutch doctor or professor and an English young lady. There is always some type of conflict that has to be settled before the happily ever after. No violence and no sexual content.
