Beschreibung

Helen tells the story of a young orphan, Helen Stanley, whose guardian, Dean Stanley, has squandered his fortune and left Helen without means of support. She is forced to take up residence with the local vicar, whose wife is astonished that none of the Stanleys' aristocratic friends have offered a refuge to her. Eventually, however, the Davenant family returns from abroad and invite Helen to their daughter's new home, Clarendon Park since Cecilia Davenant has just married General Clarendon. Helen journeys to join her dear friend Cecilia, a charming socialite which results with Helen's experiences among the most fortunate of Britain's elite under the tutelage of Lady Davenant, who in some ways favors Helen over her own daughter Cecilia.

    As the new director of Sunnyside Assisted Living, Lauren has her hands full with everything from a budget-obsessed boss to a 90-year-old muffin-juggling resident. 
    And now Lauren’s got a brand-new fire to put out. 
    There’s a beautiful stranger outside her office, waiting to steal a moment of Lauren’s time –with a fox perched on her shoulder. 
    Grace just launched her animal-assisted therapy business with almost no start-up money and a borrowed fennec fox, but she knows furry companions will transform the lives of Sunnyside’s elderly residents. 
    The moment she sets eyes on the raven-haired Lauren, Grace wants this deal even more. 
    Too bad Lauren’s stodgy boss takes one look at the fox and gives the idea a big heck no. Lauren the rule-follower reluctantly shows Grace the door. 
    But Grace is no quitter – when it comes to business or the woman who caught her eye. She comes back with service dogs, and not only do they bring Sunnyside’s most isolated resident out of her shell, they revive a decades-old romance between two women who never expected to see each other again. 
    Witnessing the awesome power of Grace’s animals – and her dedication and passion – Lauren decides defying her boss is a risk worth taking. But as she and Grace grow closer, can she go from breaking rules to risking her own heart?

    With wounded soldiers all around her, Major Logan Sharp doesn't have time to pamper some photographer from stateside. What spare energy she does have goes to worrying what she'll do when she ships home from Afghanistan. Home—for Logan, the word means nothing. But photographer Jillian Knight is not what she expects, and certainly not what she needs complicating her last tour. 
     
     
     
    Leaving her partner and daughter at home, Jillian Knight is on assignment in Kandahar to record the heroic work of medical units in war zones. She knows it'll be rough, but Logan Sharp's dedication and competence is reassuring. Jillian finds herself looking forward to her encounters with the intriguing military doctor, understanding that a by-the-rules demeanor is a must for surviving in a land where life is cheap. 
     
     
     
    Intense feelings threaten to overwhelm their good sense, but they follow the rules. After a single heart-stopping kiss, they do the only thing they must—say goodbye. Keeping in touch is not part of the plan, but when their paths cross unexpectedly more than a year later, abiding by the rules is suddenly much harder than they ever expected. 
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.
