Even though you hate me, I still love you... Worried about her aging grandmother, Emily visited her grandmother's mansion after a long absence. Eleven years earlier, she'd fallen in love with Lucas, the man next door. However, after a painful encounter, and his engagement, she fell out of love with him. At least Lucas was now working as a doctor in faraway Africa—there was no way that they would run into each other now. But, sadly, his wife passed away and he had returned to his home. To make matters worse, a fire broke out in her grandmother's mansion the very night Emily arrived, meaning Emily and her grandmother have nowhere else to go but Lucas's nearby home. Unbelievable! How on earth is Emily going to be able to share a roof him? (Source: Harlequin/SB Creative Corp.)
