An uplifting and feel-good romance perfect for fans of Mhairi McFarlane and Beth O'Leary!'A heart-warming, life-affirming gem . . . full of wry humour and the insights that seeing families at their most vulnerable must offer'Pernille HughesIt is a truth universally acknowledged that a Yorkshire lass in possession of a career, a house, and a cat, must be in want of a husb-Oh get a grip!Dr Tess Carter is no starry-eyed Jane Austen heroine. After all, if your dad left without a backward glance and you found your last boyfriend in bed with another guy, you wouldn't believe in romance either. And the voices in Tess's head - you know, the ones that tell you you're not good enough, not pretty enough, not clever enough - well, these voices are very loud. Very loud indeed. Especially when the proud and disagreeable son of one of her patients starts challenging her every decision.Edward Russell might have a big job and a posh voice, but Tess is determined not to let him get to her, especially if she can get her inner monologue to stop with the endless self-sabotage. And Edward, it turns out, may be less of a prat than he first appears; he's certainly handy in a crisis.In the real world, where gentlemanlike manners and out-of-the-blue declarations of love are a story-book fantasy, it's up to Tess to decide whose voice to listen to ... and how to make her own heard.
