believes that happily-ever-afters exist only between the covers of her sexy

handsome emergency room doctor. The outspoken author feels an instant and
intense attraction to Dr. Walt Eddy, and the feeling is mutual. When the
globetrotting doctor pulls a disappearing act on Dakota, she’s prepared to
write him off…until fate brings a blindsiding twist to her story.
Still scarred from a past tragedy,
Walt may have disappeared on Dakota, but now he’s determined to win her back.
For the first time in years, he knows he’s ready for a new chance at love. Yet
between Dakota’s doubts and two sets of meddling parents, can the once-blissful
couple finally create the bright, loving future they desperately want?

Excerpt:
“You find this
amusing Miss…”
Her eyes met his and
she leaned over the table, planting both hands firmly in place. “Laurens. And
yeah, I do.”
The blonde rapped
her knuckles on her friends arm. “Dakota!”
Dakota…snazzy, a landmark more than a name…a beautiful woman full of
life. Yeah, the name suited her.
“What?”
“Maybe we should
move to another room.” The blonde was in a much more agreeable state than Miss
Laurens.
“I’m guessing there
are more women out there here to listen to me than professionals here to listen
to the good doctor.”
Walt envisioned the
women standing in line, knew without a doubt Dakota was right.
In any other
situation, Walt would have simply smiled and left the room, but something about
Dakota Laurens sparked inside and made him want to get under her skin.
Something made him want her to stop laughing and to take notice…of him.
Robert turned away
from them when the phone in his hand buzzed and he talked in hushed tones.
“You’re part of the
romance convention?” Walt asked, already knowing she was.
Dakota removed a
stack of papers from her bag and tapped the edges together to align them. “You
say romance convention as if it’s a disease, Dr…Eddy is it?”
“Walt. And I didn’t
know they had conventions based on bodice-ripping novels.”
The blonde’s agreeable
grin slid and Dakota blew out a sigh. Her lips kept her snarky grin, but Walt
knew his words dug deep. His own mother wore that look whenever his father said
something just to piss Mom off.
“What are you
presenting today, Dr. Eddy?” Dakota stood tall, her shoulders back with a chin
out in defiance.
“I’m sharing the art
of improvising medical tools and equipment when all you have is dental floss
and a toothpick. What about you?”
Her eyes would be
classified as brown, but damn they looked nearly black when she was ticked. And
although Walt didn’t know her well… he knew enough to know she didn’t look
happy. In a second, those eyes took on a softer shade, almost liquid chocolate
mixed with honey. A wicked smile tilted one side of her lips.
Walt had to remind
himself not to lick his own in response.
“The art of crafting
a gratifying sexual love scene.”
Walt did lick his
lips…blinked twice, and drew his brows together. “Excuse me?” He pulled on his
collar, knew the room wasn’t warm.
Dakota leaned a hip against
the table that separated them and leaned in just enough for him to see the
depth of her cleavage.
“I write bodice rippers as you so eloquently labeled them, Dr. Eddy. Safe to say there
are a couple of satisfying ripping of bodices in them…don’t you think?”
