内容説明
Dutch surgeon Sebastian van Tecqx had offered Emily's father the chance of a life-changing operation. But favors don't come cheap, and he 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.
内容（「BOOK」データベースより）
人との出会いによって生活全般が大きく変わることがある。エミリーの場合は十月半ばの冷たい雨の朝に、道の曲がり角で1人の男と正面衡突したことがきっかけだった。彼女は病院で実習中の看護学校2年生。その日、夜勤明けでくたくたに疲れていたエミリーは、通い慣れた道をうつむきかげんで下宿に向かっていた。ぶつかったとたん男は不機嫌な声で文句を言った。が、穏やかな表情のエミリーにほほ笑み、散乱したものを拾い始める。親切にも下宿まで送ってくれた彼に病院でのことを話したけれど、部屋に入ってから彼女は、いつもと違うおしゃべりな自分に気づいた。

Romance that gives you a warm feeling inside
2002/3/8
形式:ペーパーバック|Amazonが確認した購入
Like the reader from Australia, "The Fateful Bargain" was the very first book I ever read by Betty Neels-- and once I'd read one, I was hooked! For those of you out there who enjoy a warm, feel-good, clean (operative word) romance, this is one of many Neels books I recommend you sink your teeth into
The narrative style is wonderfully matter-of-fact, relating the story of a young woman who is neither beautiful nor brilliant (facts that will instantly gain sympathy points from many readers--after all, most people are not gorgeous; does that mean they are less worthy of love?)-- just a nice, practical-minded girl whose life could stand to be enriched by love. The story may strike some readers as a classic rags-to-riches tale, but this ordinary girl turned Cinderella does not now become ravishing in appearance(except to the adoring Sebastian),nor does she begin to make brainless decisions as she begins to fall in love with the good doctor--and she does not hesitate to speak her mind when necessary. Emily is just a plucky young woman whose heartwarming common sense in trying situations is sure to evoke a few smiles.
Dr. van Tecqx, who is several years older, is at first only sympathetic toward his "little friend"; he pities her near-impoverished plight and desires to help her even as she renders him an invaluable service. But gradually, (and this is another delightful aspect of the plot: the hero does not fall madly in love with the heroine at first sight-- where does that happen in real life?)he comes to realize that Emily is the woman for him.
Although Betty Neels died recently, her legacy lives on in the very many romance titles she penned over a career spanning nearly thirty years. For a refreshing change from sultry, over-sexed drivel that passes as romance these days, you might try Ms. Neels-- you won't be sorry.

Just so you know, I am a huge Betty Neels fan, so I am hardly objective. However,what I lose in objectivity I gain from having many of Ms. Neels wonderful romances.
One of the things I love about her books is the lack of explicit sexuality. All of her stories are sweet, old fashion romances; and while they may sound rather trite, at the end of a hard day in a cold, cruel world, it is a great comfort to wrap myself in the cozy, warm world Neels romances engender in my imagination.
This book is one of my favorites and I have read it countless times. It is the usual formula: homely English nurse meets, rich handsome Dutch doctor who sweeps her away to Holland. Her characters are so real one feels they know each and every one personally, and she makes Holland sound like another word for heaven.
I love the older used copies because in spite of being somewhat battered and tattered, the art work is delightful and somewhat nostalgic.
I highly recommend this book..It will lift your spirits, again and again.

I really enjoyed this story. Our hero is drawn to Emily from the get go - he questions this because she is plain looking, but continues to worm his way into her life anyway. Then he makes the bargain with her that changes her life and ultimately his. I loved the way you could feel the tension building between the two characters. She's desperately in love and he's fighting to keep his hands off her - until their bargain is completed! But his whole family seems to know she's the girl for him.
