About the author
Alison Roberts
851 books67 followersI was born and raised in Dunedin, New Zealand, but had my first year of school in London, UK and the second in Washington DC. I became a primary school teacher and began writing when I was living in Glasgow, Scotland for two years and teachers were all on strike. My first novel was a medical thriller with a good dash of romance thrown in.
I have now written well over a hundred romance novels with more than a dash of medicine thrown in. I love weaving the emotional journey of a love story through the background drama the medical world can provide. I also love the rabbit holes I can go down in the name of research.
Above all, I love romance. And a happy ending!

A lovely community spirited story line
My goodness, all the people close to Jen, leave so abruptly. Thank goodness Andrew saw the light and his future. This story ticked over beautifully. A slow burn read
