There's a comforting sameness to Betty Neels' work, but this one stands out. It holds up particularly well, and I genuinely liked both the hero and the heroine.
A good quick read about a swift marriage of convenience...
From back of book: SHE WAS NOT GOING TO EXCHANGE ONE DULL LIFE FOR ANOTHER
Far from being brokenhearted when her long-standing and rather dull engagement to Tony came to an end, Prudence welcomed it as an opportunity to break out of her comfortable shell, to make a new and exciting life for herself. So the job that Benedict van Vinke offered-acting as his secretary and looking after his little daughter- had come just at the right time. It would also give Prudence a chance to visit Holland. But would she have such an exciting life, after all, if she accepted Benedict's cold-blooded proposal?
