Holly's Heart - Fiona McArthur

. .

Résumé :
Doctor Ben Briely is keen to settle into life as a small town general practitioner and help his grandmother run Briely Park. The city life was never for him. He's finally found the peace he's longed for, until the arrival of that one woman he's never been able to forget, threatens to shatter it all. No way is he revisiting that road of unrequited love…except Holly Peterson seems fragile and in need of saving, and Ben's never stopped being Holly's white knight. After losing her sister and her faith in the world of medicine, Holly Peterson moves home to Wirralong along with her two nephews. Determined to rebuild her life and create a loving home and sense of belonging, she opens the Outback Brides Coffee Shop as her new vocation. When she learns that Ben Briely, the man she said no to years ago is home to stay, Holly fears she'll lose her heart and her focus on her nephews if she lets him in. Will Ben be able to break through Holly's fears and barriers or will history repeat itself and destroy him once again?

And, absolutely, happy endings are a must.Fiona says, 'I adore romantic moments, magical places, and new babies. The strength in women, for women, shines like a light everyone should see and I love to write about that strength. I love to laugh and celebrate kindness.My real hero is a kind man and has made me laugh every day since I was seventeen. All my heroes are like that. Now my five sons make me laugh as well.For you, dear Reader, I wish for you to leave my books with a smile and a belief that the world is good place full of ordinary but extraordinary people. And so many beautiful places exist in the world you can escape to - if for the moment, in a book.' xxFi
