Loving Eleanor

Natasha's free online serial eHarlequin.com
(links to each chapter at right.)

Luke and Susanna Burnett have been married for fifteen months — thirteen of which have been spent at their baby daughter’s bedside. Born prematurely with a condition called Necrotising Enterocolitis, baby Eleanor has spent the majority of her short life in hospital.

While Susanna keeps vigil at their daughter’s bedside, Luke deals with his anguish and concern differently, going off to work, barely showing any emotion. His actions convince Susanna even more that Luke only married her because she was pregnant — not because he was in love with her.

Now, desperately in need of a liver transplant, it seems Eleanor has lost her fight for life. Luke and Susanna wait the agonising hours together while the search for a donor goes on…but in the tumult of their grief, they realise there is more to their relationship than they ever imagined.

Do you think Luke would leave his wife if their daughter didn't pull through? What if she did? Share your thoughts on Loving Eleanor with other romance fans on the message board.
