About the book

Gallant to the rescue!

So Harry decides he's chosen the wrong sister just as they're about to walk down the aisle; that doesn't make Emily a romantic failure. As her best friend, Meg, sees it, Emily just needs a long holiday and a gorgeous guy who'll make her forget about Harry!

The holiday's the easy part; persuading Emily that another romance is the best cure for a broken heart is a tall order even for Meg.

That is, until Lyon Gallant comes on the scene. He's rich, he's cute and he's determined that Emily's going to get over Harry whether she likes it or not!
