Produktbeschreibung
Xanthe Charles was born with a severe congenital heart defect. She is shy and lacks confidence after spending much of her childhood in and out of hospital, undergoing life-saving surgeries. A non-identical twin, she has grown up in her sister's shadow and in the over-protective care of her strict Catholic parents. At 26, now a nurse at the local children's hospital and craving independence, she finally decides to leave home. She manages to afford a place of her own and thought life couldn't get any better... until she meets her neighbour, Charlie Brooke. Unbeknown to Xanthe, he's a local celebrity and regular performer in a Las Vegas show. As the relationship grows, so does Xanthe's confidence. Their rollercoaster romance has the makings of a true fairy tale until an ironic twist of fate leaves Xanthe's heart even more broken than when she was born.
Autorenporträt
Louise Lindley grew up in the northeast of England. In 2004, she moved to Canada with her husband, a pediatric anesthetist, for what was supposed to be 1 year. Fifteen years later, she appears to be staying. Before giving up her career to raise her family, she worked as a pediatric intensive care nurse. When she was diagnosed with a chronic disease in 2010, she turned to writing, combining her knowledge of the medical world with personal life experiences. She lives in Vancouver with her family and too many animals.
