Bad Neighbours

the long version

The dream house Pernelle Richards wanted to buy had been snapped up by a wealthy businessman from London. He bought Myrtle Cottage to use as his weekend retreat. She lost no time in telling Hunter Tremaine exactly what she thought of him and his underhanded ways. But then, when circumstances contrived to throw Pernelle and her attractive new neighbour together, she began to see him in a different light. Perhaps the man wasn't so bad after all. Not that Pernelle's opinion seemed to matter--especially to Hunter!
