When sleep claims Luna, her four-year-old twins leave the house and go over to visit the new neighbor, Derick, who's a detective. She awakes and panics when she can't find her children. When she finds them with Derick, instead of waiting for an explanation she verbally attacks him.

Her cold has gotten the best of her, and the doctor has ordered her to take it easy. That's difficult to do with two lively children, but Derick comes to her rescue. When Derick moved next door to a single mum he never expected to find himself instantly attracted to her. The way he's introduced to her should have been his first clue to stay away from her. He just can't stop thinking about her, and he knows that there's something there between them. On his way home from work one night he pulls over someone who is driving slowly and finds Luna looking very unwell. When she becomes sick and then passes out he takes her to the hospital and decides that he's going to help her. The more time Derick spends with Luna, the more he finds himself falling for her. He even comes to love her children. Derick had given up on ever finding his one, and as his feelings grow for Luna he comes to realize she is his one true love. With Christmas just around the corner can he convince her to give him the chance to prove she's his one, his true love?

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.
