Book Description

Blurb 1

She might have realised, Tess Carlen thought bitterly, that when her stepmotherinvited her to spend the summer with her in Tangier, there would be strings attached. Clare, it seemed, had two suitors-the rich but stolid Victor Mears, and the glamorous Ramon Guevara-and it was to be Tess's task to keep Victor occupied until Clare discovered just where she stood with Ramon. Tess's misgivings grew stronger when the English doctor, Philip Westland, warned her that Ramon's reputation was unsavoury even in such a place of mystery and intrigue as Tangier. But Philip failed to warn her about the final complication-that of falling in love with a man who had no interest in her.

Blurb 2

From the back cover of Mills & Boon Romance #289, July 1968, UK Reissue:

Provocative women left him cold, he had told Tess meaningly, but it was probably a half-truth. True coldness is indifference, and somehow you couldn't imagine Doctor Westland indifferent to anything at all. He was too sure of himself, too positive. Yet was it the act of a positive man to ask a strange young woman like Tess Carlen out to his house in Tangier to discuss something important? Whatever the reason, Tess knew she could not resist accepting the invitation, so she went - and afterwards she knew that life could never be quite the same again.
