Lisa Collins appears to have it all. At seventeen she is engaged to a powerful and fabulously wealthy tax exile in the Isle of Man but only Lisa knows that it’s her need to escape the constant abuse which she receives from her alcoholic mother, that has driven her into making such a hasty decision. On the eve of the glittering party to announce her engagement, she is visited by twenty one year old Alan Turner, who points out the shortcomings of her decision. Thrown together by an ironic twist of fate they fall deeply in love but they have only two short weeks to prove to each other that their love will endure their inevitable separation. With the odds stacked against them they love with the tenderness of a modern day Romeo and Juliet in the short time they have together but have they done enough? Have they allayed each others fears sufficiently? Only time will tell... six of twenty four chapters available free
