'Eliza has been a magnet for the broken hearts of others, who ultimately end up breaking her own.

'When handsome but emotionally wounded Dr Jack Dancer enters her life, she won't allow herself to act on their growing attraction. But one night when Jack makes love to her, she knows she is lost and is devastated by his coolness the next day. She knows that to stop her heart being broken again she must leave. It's only then that Jack finally realises he's got to tell Eliza how much he loves her, and he recruits the entire village to help persuade her to become his bride!' (Publication summary)
