Seeds of Love — Margaret O'Neill

Ex-nurse Toni King left medicine after a trauma, taking refuge in the country quietly running her grandfather's gardening business. A chance meeting with the locum Dr Rupert Devenish started the healing process, and gradually the scars of the past faded. Yet as Toni regained her confidence, the more Rupert seemed to distance himself from her. Rupert had been so approachable as a friend, but anything more intimate and he became unattainably enigmatic. Did he think her feelings for him stemmed from gratitude?
