The Fateful Bargain

They had made a binding arrangement

Dutch surgeon Sebastian van Tecqx had offered Emily's father the chance to have a life-changing operation. But favors don't come cheap, and the doctor expected something in return. It wasn't hard for Emily to exchange her drab nurse's lodgings for Sebastian's luxurious home, but how could Emily stop herself from falling in love with her charismatic employer? Especially once Sebastian made it clear that marriage was not part of the bargain.
