Produktbeschreibung
Kimberley Weatherby leads a privileged if rather boring existence with her well-to-do family on the Isle of Man. Her long-time boyfriend has left her. Then two men enter her life: a gorgeous newcomer to the island and a mysterious foreign stranger. Unfortunately, it was the one she doesn't want that proposes marriage. Meantime she has to navigate some challenging personal relationships. There are her best friends: Lisa, caring but overemotional and Julie, an ambitious single mother with an eye on the financial aspects of life. Then her immediate family presents multiple challenges. Her widowed stepmother, Irene, is demanding and bitter. Older brother Richard is exasperatingly dull, if diligent. And younger brother Bob is full of youthful exuberance and always getting into harmless scrapes - or are they? Her romantic dilemma is quickly overshadowed by a dramatic and tragic event which exposes the secrets of everyone. Reeling from shock she must find the strength to resolve a dangerous situation and deal with repercussions that affect everyone around her.
Autorenporträt
Marianne Kendall has always scribbled, but any serious attempt at writing was pushed aside by the more urgent demands of life. She had a varied career but, at thirty years old, with no marriage, no job and two small children, she decided to become an accountant. It paid the bills. It was later in life that she fell into lecturing, publishing a book on international finance. She now lives quietly, cooking, entertaining friends, and annoying her children.
