The Apple Tree

This novel was previously published by Prism Book Group (formerly Inspired Romance Novels) and was their GRAND PRIZE WINNER in December 2011. Escaping from your past is never easy, as junior hospital doctor Juliet discovers when she tries to start afresh, leaving both her marriage and her career behind. Love blossoms rapidly when she meets the mysterious and forthright Nicholas, who seems to herald the new beginning she craves. But Nicholas isn't quite what he seems—and also holds strong views on the subject of marriage that she fails to take seriously. The past quickly dissolves into insignificance as their all-consuming romance propels them forward. But Juliet has to learn the price of happiness in the cruellest way possible, before tackling the painful roots of her past to allow her future to grow strong and healthy.
