Книга: Sarah Webb «Anything for Love»
|
Life isn't looking too rosy for Alice Devine. She's a single mum, and needs a well-paid job fast, because as much as she loves her sister, Hilda, she hadn't planned on living with her. Added to that, her love life has been a disaster and she's beginning to wonder if she'll ever find the man of her dreams. Things suddenly start to look up when she lands the job as assistant fund raiser for St Jude's Maternity Hospital - particularly when she meets her new boss, the gorgeous but enigmatic Jack Wiseheart.
