Описание книги

This is a prequel to my first book SNIPERS! It tells a Christmas story about the birth of the youngest character in the first two books of the SNIPER series. There is a young woman, well young in Twenty-First Century terms, an older man but not too much older and a fractious family. The power figure appears to be the patriarch of this family. Abraham Feelgood is a hard man who is the richest man in Australia. He wants to marry off his eldest daughter Hera to increase his political influence. Hera has no intention of letting her father railroad her into marrying someone she does not love. Her secret ally is her mother. Mary Feelgood is not going to let her daughter be pressured into marrying anyone. She works behind the scenes to scuttle all of her husband's attempts at marrying off his daughter. Then Hera meets the man of her dreams at a dance. She falls in love with this dashing army officer. But her father finds out. He uses his considerable political influence to get this troublesome suitor sent on an overseas posting. His intent is obvious when that posting is to a combat zone. The two lovers must find a way to continue their romance whilst being separated most of the time.

Most young woman had kept their slim summer figures specifically to allow them to squeeze into impossibly tight dresses. Men came because the females were all from connected families. Matriarchs made sure all the city's eligible bachelors attended. Even the wives of military commanders got involved in a bit of matchmaking. One such wife was presuring her husband into ordering some of his officers to attend this ball. She started very craftily by saying in a wounded voice,

"Well I think it is just too much..... I said Ron that it is just to much!"

.....

"Horrible Hera the demigod! HowI have missed that tongue of yours. That poor man did not stand a chance."

Looking round Hera saw a familiar face. She cheered, raced up to him and threw her arms around his neck. This was no gentle hug. He had to fight for breath but did not seem to care. Finally Hera said in a loving tone of voice
