Judith

By Betty Neels

Book Overview

After the hurly-burly of the big London hospital where she had been working, Judith found it a very pleasant change to be offered a private job looking after a charming patient, Lady Cresswell, in the Lake District. Her patient gave her no trouble at all--which was more than could be said for her son, the disagreeable Professor Charles Cresswell.

Another wonderful story by Neels

I am a steadfast Neels fan and own ALL of her books, even the anthologies. This is one of my favorites which I've read many time, and my heart still aches at certain places, as well as, soars with glee in other places. I love how Judith and her eminent writer dislike each other at the start, but his mother, who is not well, recognizes that they would be good for each other and sets the stage for their ultimate happy ending. Their journey towards discovering how much they care for one another is a fun read peppered with Neels' style of tender care for an ailing person, hero/heroine's pride and stubbornness clashing, misunderstandings, and ultimately, the realization of love.
