Wyckford General Hospital (Book 4)
AN UNEXPECTED GIFT IN THEIR STOCKING
Radiologist Riley isn't interested in romance. After an
accident left her in a wheelchair, she'll prove she doesn't need anyone's help
-- especially neurosurgeon Sam's. But despite his being infuriatingly gorgeous,
she can't knock her new research partner's commitment to their study. Single
dad Sam's still fighting his grief and is hell-bent on curing the disease that
stole his wife. Yet he can't stop thinking about Riley…or the way his little
girl lights up around her. With their undeniable attraction growing, could a
family of three top their Christmas lists?
Good book about two people whose pasts have made them
resistant to romance. Riley is an independent woman who vehemently insists she
doesn't need to depend on anyone else for help after an accident left her in a
wheelchair. I found her a little abrasive at times when she rejected well-meaning
offers of assistance, but I also understood her frustration at being treated as
helpless by some. Riley has a job she loves as a radiologist and family and
friends she loves. She doesn't understand her sudden fascination with her coworker,
Sam.
Sam is a single father who moved to Wyckford after his
wife's death, looking for a new start. He is still grieving for his wife and is
determined to continue searching for a cure for the disease that killed her.
He's closed off his emotions to anyone other than his daughter, Ivy, to protect
his heart from more pain. He doesn't understand why Riley suddenly pops into
his mind so often.
With Sam's daughter, Ivy, and Riley's niece, Adi, being
best friends, Sam and Riley suddenly find themselves spending more time
together. The sparks between them intensify, but they try to ignore them. Seeing
them try to convince themselves they weren't falling for each other was funny
and frustrating. Their feelings for each other grow, but Riley's pride and
Sam's fears keep them from embracing those feelings. It takes a near tragedy
for them to put the past behind them and look to a future together.
