Ang sabi nga nila na ang kasal raw ay isang sagrado at napakahalagang natatanging sakramentong bagay na minsan lang kung mangyari sa buong buhay ng isang babae at lalaki. Nagbubuklod ito sa dalawang taong nagmamahalan na handa nang bumuo ng sarili nilang pamilya. Pero ano nga ba ang mga katangian na kinakailangan para mas maging matatag ang pagsasama ng dalawang tao? Pagmamahal, tiwala at respeto. Pero papaano kung mawala ang isa sa mga ito? Mapapanatili pa rin ba kaya ang dating pagmamahalan ng dalawang tao, kung unti-unti nang nawawala ang respeto at tiwala nila sa isa't isa? "NILOKO MO AKO! AKO NA WALANG IBANG GINAWA KUNDI ANG MAHALIN KA! IKAW ANG UNANG SUMIRA SA PAGSASAMA NATING DALAWA! ANG SAKIT NA IBINIGAY MO SA AKIN ANG SIYANG NAGING DAHILAN PARA KAMUHIAN AT GANTIHAN KITA!" malakas na sigaw ni Snow sa asawa niyang si Dalton habang puno ng mga luha ang kanyang buong mukha. "Oo, inaamin kong nagkamali ako. Pero hindi sapat 'yon para gantihan mo ako, Snow! Hindi na ikaw ang dating babaeng nakilala ko, Snow. Nag-iba ka na, at alam kong ako ang may kasalanan sa lahat nang ito," puno ng pait na sagot sa kanya ni Dalton. Kaya pa kayang ibalik muli ang dating matamis na pagmamahalan nilang dalawa? Kung nakaukit na sa buong puso at utak nila ang sakit at pagtataksil sa isa't isa. May pag-asa pa kayang mahahanap nila sa kaibuturan ng kanilang mga puso ang kapatawaran sa isa't isa.

From New York Times bestselling author Krista Lakes, comes a sexy standalone novel about the baddest bad boy doctor and the sweet little nurse that he falls for. When I left my small hometown years ago, I never expected to come back. I certainly never expected that when I did, I'd be working for him. He's the town's doctor. He's supposed to be a respectable member of society, a pillar for the community. He's supposed to have come a long way from the bad boy who rode a motorcycle in high school. But he hasn't. One glance from those lustful eyes looking at me tells me that he has the same voracious appetites that he did when we were younger. Only it's not quite the same stare. It's more urgent. It's more intense. I'm not the same nerdy girl who tutored him. I've grown up, developed fertile curves that I know he finds irresistible. In this small town, rumors travel fast, and the family doctor can't be seen as a player. So he does try to resist. And I do too. But with every smoldering glance and moment of sexual tension, we find our barriers breaking down. After a stressful night of touch-and-go baby delivery, a moment of elation overcomes our inhibitions. It seems like maybe we'll need to confront those rumors sooner rather than later, especially before I begin to show the results of that night. Can I give this doctor the family he has always desired?

My husband's even the one who handles the surgery. What he doesn't know is that I've already donated a kidney for the sake of his career. He loses his mind once he slices my abdomen open.
