AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Having recently accepted a new job and rejected a marriage proposal, Dr. Erin Carmody was already reeling. So, after crashing her car and staggering to the door of Dr. Dom Spencer, she barely knew which way was up. At least that was how she rationalized the crazy, wonderful attraction she felt for this man she'd only just met.

'But as Erin healed, she began to believe in the unbelievable. Perhaps she was meant to be here – helping Dom care for the people of Bombadeen, being a mother to his foster sons. Dom had shown her what true love was – if only he'd let her prove to him that what they had was real....' (Publication summary)

'One stormy night, Erin swerves to avoid a dog in the road?only to end up crashing in the river. Struggling from the wreckage, she picks up the abandoned dog and wanders until she finds a clinic. The doctor, Dom, takes them both in; his warmth makes her chest so tight… The next day, out of nowhere, Erin offers to help Dom since he’s so busy. Perhaps by his side, she can find meaning that can counter the listlessness she feels.' (Publication summary)
