About this ebook
DID HE REALLY LOVE ANOTHER?
Upon meeting Dr. Crispin van Sibbelt, Araminta Shaw found him to be bad tempered and, she had to admit, rather attractive! Rescued from a rocky Cornish cove after tending an injured child, the London sister judged him shockingly brusque.
When an unexpected visit to her London basement flat brought a lavish supper from Harrods instead of cold arrogance, Araminta began to wonder about him.
A summons to Amsterdam soon followed, calling her to the bedside of her cousin's ailing wife. Facing him across the hospital consulting room, she anticipated his usual aloof severity.
Staying in Holland to nurse a sick relative provided the perfect opportunity for her to fall in love with him. But even though Crispin talked of marriage, Araminta discovered there was someone else close to his heart. What was she to do?
