Oh No, I've Fallen in Love! Louise Wise

Valerie Anthrope is neurotic and a regimented loner whose life unfolds after a 'chance' encounter with a stranger. Valerie Anthrope struggles with human connection. Nothing is missing in her carefully timetabled life of avoiding social interactions. But everything changes when Valerie meets Ellen, her self-acclaimed fairy godmother. And it is Ellen who, by wanting to help Valerie, introduces her to her nephew, Lex. Smooth-talking, sexy as sin, egotistical know-it-all, Lex Kendal thinks he's God's gift to women-until Valerie knocks him back. His interest is immediately piqued but Ellen warns him off, telling him that Valerie isn't the kind of woman to cope with his 'bed 'em and dump 'em' mantra. Lex learns the hard way that illness is sometimes invisible and hidden by the sufferer. Valerie learns that she needs a helping hand to get well. Ellen doesn't learn anything. She's perfect as she is.
