Doctor's Orders
Hope Stone - 2020
She doesn’t expect the handsome doctor to turn out to be the handsome man of her dreams. But one thing leads to another and romance is in the air. Libby I almost gasped a little, the doctor wasn’t at all who I’d been expecting. I guess part of me thought he’d be a lot older, perhaps in his fifties or sixties, with gray hair and a jolly laugh. I definitely wasn’t expecting him to be extremely handsome and in his late thirties or early forties, with salt and pepper hair and a chiselled jawline that belonged in Hollywood. Dr. James AvenI thought she was the most beautiful woman I’d seen in years and I had to stop myself from flirting with her. It was unprofessional. But there was something about her smile that I couldn’t let go of. In this steamy standalone novella, you’re guaranteed a story that will keep a smile on your face the whole way through. There are no cliffhangers, but there definitely is a guaranteed HEA.
