Tanin Doshi / Original Title: the DOUBTFUL MARRIAGE (Harlequin SP Bunko)

[Machine Translation] After the death of her parents, Matilda grew up with an uncle who was a doctor and now works as a nurse helping out at a clinic. Her quiet and peaceful life changes drastically when her uncle dies. Her cousin, who inherited everything, kicked her out of the house, and she finally found a job as a geriatric nurse, but the hard work was too much for her and she collapsed. She is saved by an acquaintance of her uncle, a charming Dutch doctor named Lauwert, who is a stranger to her and suddenly becomes a proponent of her profession. When he suddenly proposes to her, Matilda is at a loss for what to do. She was puzzled because she had once heard him say that marriage was "convenient."

両親を亡くしたマチルダは医師である伯父のもとで育ち、今は診療所を助けて看護師として働いていた。そんな彼女の静かで平穏な生活は、伯父の死で一変する。すべての遺産を継いだ従兄に家を追い出され、やっと老人看護の職に就くが、過酷な労働に倒れてしまった。八方ふさがりの彼女に救いの手を差しのべたのは、伯父の知人である魅力的なオランダ人医師、ラウヴェルト。他人も同然の彼に突然プロポーズされ、マチルダはとまどった。なぜなら以前、結婚は“都合がいい”と彼が言うのを聞いたから。
