Lucy Williams is hoping to get the new consultant post at the Cornish maternity unit where she works. But, no, the post goes to the all–male, half–Italian, drop–dead gorgeous Nic Alberici!

Immediately sparks fly between them – though the two high–flying doctors are too professional to admit their attraction. But when Lucy's former fiance starts pestering her, Nic has an outrageous proposal – that they pretend to be an item!

It's all part of Nic's plan to bring them together – whether Lucy likes it or not, his intentions are real.Who knows? It might just work!
