Rosamunde Pilcher: Zwei Schwestern

Widowed Dr. Dillan was perfectly happy on a glorious Cornish estate with his daughters until Laurie has an accident which scarred her, physically recovered but for some leg scares, but mentally for life. Handsome gentleman William buys a neighboring estate to start a stud-farm. His budding affair with Laurie's stronger, lively elder sister Jane after Laurie withdrew from an earlier romance, is threatened by the recurring pattern of the Dillan family expecting Jane to step back on account of 'poor Laurie', even after they got engaged. The doc's charming apprentice Tim however has a positive influence.
