The Italian's New-Year Marriage Wish (2007) - Plot & Excerpts
He’d known she wasn’t a career woman. He’d known she’d loved him. Why hadn’t he managed to unravel the problem sooner? Since when had he been so obtuse? All he had to do now was convince her that it didn’t make a difference to their marriage. He heard a noise behind him and turned to find her standing in the doorway to the bathroom. She’d borrowed one of his T-shirts to sleep in and she looked impossibly young and slender, her face free of make-up and worryingly pale. ‘Buongiorno, tesoro. I’m sorry if I woke you. I have surgery this morning.’ ‘So do I. I agreed it with Nick.’ Her eyes slid from his and she gave an awkward smile. ‘I’ll go and use the other bathroom, shall I?’ ‘Go back to bed.’ He splashed his face and reached for a towel. ‘You’re not in a fit state to do surgery. Yesterday was a huge trauma for you and you’ve had no sleep. I’ll take your patients and I’ll explain to Nick.’ ‘I’ll be fine when I’ve had a shower.’ After a moment’s hesitation she reached into the shower cubicle and turned on the water.
