Customer Reviews

A Doctor, Nurse, and a Sad Little Boy

One of Betty Neels' romances about a wealthy, hansome Dutch doctor, a very pretty and efficient English nurse, and an evil love-to-hate governess. I found it a little hard to believe that Phoebe the nurse kept quiet about the governess for so long and that the doctor had no idea how evil the governess really was as well as ignoring the hurtful things she said. Most of Neels' heroes seem oblivious to the shenanigans of the beautiful women around them, but this main character takes it to the extreme. It is a good romance, of course, and ends as the reader expects.

Who's Fooling Who?

Book Description: Phoebe Brook hadn't planned on taking a nursing job in Holland, and certainly not under false pretenses. But when her sister Sybil decided to get married instead of going to work for Dr. Lucius van Someren, Sybil persuaded Phoebe to take her place. With Lucius's son Paul so hostile, and Paul's governess acting as if Lucius was her property, Phoebe really didn't need to compound her problems by falling in love with the doctor! This story centers around a handsome, work-absorbed, rich, Dutch Doctor (Muscoviscidosys (Fibrocystitis) Specialist) and an attractive British Nurse (Women's Medical Ward Night Sister) who looks "enough" like her younger sister to fool the unobservant doctor. Or, is he as inattentive as he appears?

Sweet Romance

Phoebe Brooks enjoys being a nurse in London, but wouldn't mind a change from the night shift. Still, she hadn't planned on leaving England, but when her sister Sybil decides to get married instead of taking a job in Holland, Phoebe agrees to take her place. Phoebe's not happy about deceiving Doctor Lucius van Someren and is relieved when he tells her he knows who she really is. Phoebe settles into her job and soon falls in love with Lucius. But Lucius's adopted son, Paul, is hostile towards her, as is Maureen his governess, who will do anything she can to keep Phoebe away from Lucius. Will Lucius realize what's going on before it's time for Phoebe to return to London? Betty Neels' romances are always a delight to read and "Three for a Wedding" is no exception. Phoebe is a delight, beautiful, sweet, but strong enough to stand up to Maureen, who has no redeeming qualities. Lucius is the typical handsome, rich Dutch doctor that Neels loved to write about, although readers will wonder why he puts up with Maureen for so long. Young Paul is the most realistic and sympathetic character; although he plays a mean trick on Phoebe, it's clear he's not a bad child, but afraid he'll lose Lucius who took him in after his parents died. "Three for a Wedding" is yet another winner from Betty Neels!
