Wednesday Hooking Romancing the Nurse #MFRWBookHooks #MFRWauthor #Medical #Romance

Product Details

This is a new release and one I'm very proud of. My granddaughter is on the cover as a shaded figure. The book is for my adopted biracial daughter and her daughters. Since I can't remember how to do this, while the blurb is PG, the story is spicy.

Blurb:
Ginny’s new job as patient care coordinator at a suburban hospital is a dream come true. She can raise her daughter and young niece away from the city. 

The older orthopedic surgeon who recruited her helps make the move easier. His stroke brings his son, another surgeon home to take over his father’s practice. Unfortunately, Ginny remembers him from an evening encounter at the city hospital where she worked. They had words. He also remembers that night. 

They clash but beneath the anger, there is an attraction. Blake wants her in his bed and attempts to romance her. Then he discovers he wants her forever and must eat a lot of crow.

Excerpt:


When Ginny turned the corner, she stopped short.  A barely contained urge to run in the opposite direction caused her to approach the desk with slow, measured steps.  Young Dr. Marshall was tall, handsome -- and black.  He was also the resident who two years ago had questioned her nursing judgment.  Though she had been vindicated, a patient had suffered needless pain.
            Her hands curled into fists.  Dr. Marshall laughed at something Val said and then turned to Lisa.  The knot in Ginny’s abdomen swelled into her chest.  No way, she thought.  She wouldn’t allow this man or anyone to detour her from her chosen road.  She plastered a smile on her face that she knew didn’t watch the hostility she felt.
            “Dr. Marshall, I’m Ms. Barr, Patient Care Coordinator for the unit.  Welcome to Hudson View.”
            Lisa strolled away.  “See you around, Dr. Marshall.  You’ll soon discover Hudson View is nothing like the University for interesting and exciting cases.”
            Ginny stiffened.  Why did Lisa constantly bad mouth the hospital?  If she felt bored, she should have stayed at the University.
            A slow smile curved Dr. Marshall’s lips.  His dark brown eyes appraised Ginny with the intensity of a scientist peering through a microscope.  He held out a hand.  She resisted the desire to thrust her hands behind her back.  Instead, she held her arms stiffly at her sides.
            “Ms. Barr, Blake Marshall.  My father speaks highly of you.”  He rested the hand she had refused to touch on the counter that separated the nurses’ station from the hall.
            “Then I must thank him.  He has been eagerly awaiting  your arrival.”
            She held back a groan.  Stilted conversation had never been her forte, but this morning and with this man, she’d become an expert.  The knot edged into her throat.  She gulped a breath.  Why did the air between them smell of ozone as though a bolt of lightning had struck nearby?

            She saw a question in his eyes and wondered if he remembered the night they’d met.  She had called him twice and the third time had demanded he come to assess a patient.  She would never forget because that had been the night Joey had left Manda.  Angry thoughts swept her into the past.

I agree with Kayelle. Nothing like bringing a handsome doctor to his knees. Love the fact you were able to get your granddaughter on the cover.

How fun for your granddaughter to get to be a cover model!

And I love the conflict in the book. Nothing like making a hero see the error of his ways.

Best of luck!

Conflict in romance always works, doesn't it?

Great snippet.

I've been peering at your granddaughter's image trying to make out her features. She must be chuffed at having her photo on the cover.

Congratulations on your new release.
