The Reluctant Bride

By Joy Wodhams

Something happened in Gabriella Stevens' earlier life that caused her to distrust men - men, that is, of a certain type. At 24 she has never had a serious relationship and is still a virgin.Office colleague Rod Nicholson personifies that type. Too handsome, too confident, he is the focus of every female in the Company. Except Gabriella.She sees him as an amoral and unprincipled sexual predator.Rod sees Gabriella as an old maid in the making, narrow minded and judgmental.When circumstances force them into marriage, both are convinced that it is doomed to failure. Yet both must keep up the pretence - to Gabriella's silly, romantic mother, to the staff at the Company - that the union is more than just a business deal.Beneath the facade of a happy loving couple lie stormy seas of jealousy, suspicion, anger and desire. A contemporary romance with huge conflicts to be resolved between the two main characters.
