title: The Groom's Ultimatum (An Inconvenient Marriage)
author:  Kim Lawrence 
description: Kim Lawrence was encouraged by her husband to write when the unsocial hours of nursing didnt look attractive! He told her she could do anything she set her mind to, so Kim tried her hand at writing. Always a keen Mills &amp; Boon reader, it seemed natural for her to write a romance novel  now she cant imagine doing anything else. She is a keen gardener and cook and enjoys running on the beach with her Jack Russell. Kim lives in Wales.

  threat, and found none. It was a very persuasive argument.
  
  
  Though lacking much authentic Welsh blood,KIM LAWRENCE —from English/Irish
  stock—was born and brought up in north Wales. She returned there when she
  married, and her sons were both born on Anglesey, an island off the coast.
  Though not isolated, Anglesey is a little off the beaten track
