Goodbye, My Love

A love that cannot be denied ~ and a love that cannot be. Who will win? It's only a matter of time. Jessica James needs a new job and her only prospect as a nanny is with a remotely located veterinarian who only wants a "mature" candidate. But youthful Jess has faced tougher challenges, and she is determined to show the very handsome yet rude widower that she is the perfect choice to care for his autistic 4-year-old daughter, no matter how much he scowls. Dr. Ben Arnold is still grieving, and not only about the recent death of his beautiful wife. He is still coping with the knowledge his profound love for her was unreciprocated. The demands of working and taking care of Amber, his autistic young daughter, have Ben overwhelmed and the last thing he needs is an insanely strong physical reaction to a nanny who is the first to seem to connect with his beloved delicate daughter – and the last he thinks he can handle in his life. Jess is an unseasonal storm to suddenly sweep through Ben's life, and may be the balm he needs. While strange occurrences all around them defy answers and explanations, the unexpected arrival of Ben's late wife's sisters, including her identical twin, on the one-year anniversary of her death does nothing to help dispel the intense and instant desire between Jess and Ben – and Jess' glimpses of a life long past only adds to the surreal sense of the estate called Weltevreden.
