Grasp a Nettle

Mills & Boon presents the complete Betty Neels collection. Timeless tales of heart-warming romance by one of the world’s best-loved romance authors.

It seemed a most unlikely match Jenny had given up her nursing job to look after her aunt. That was no sacrifice, the only difficulty was her aunt’s doctor, the imposing Eduard van Draak te Solendik. Edward managed to be attractive and infuriating at the same time.

Unfortunately, the attraction won, and Jenny soon realised that she was in love with him. And much good it would do her, for Eduard was engaged to be married. Luckily for them both, he had some alternative wedding plans.
