      His surprise Christmas promise

      Dr. Ellen Cox goes to South America to break the shackles of her confined life. But she never imagined replacing them with bonds of desire for her new hotshot boss—Chance Freeman!

      Guarded Chance, although sorely tempted, tries to keep Ellen at a distance—and when the dangers of their jobs are ramped up, he sends her home to safety. Then he realizes his mistake and heads for snowy New York, determined to win Ellen with a very special Christmas proposal!

      “You need to get some sleep. We have another day of walking ahead of us.” He put another piece of brush on the fire. He continued to stand as if he wasn’t going to join her on the blanket.

      “You aren’t going to sleep?” Ellen asked.

      “I think I’ll sit up for a while.”

      “Then I’ll keep you company—unless you’ve had enough of me?”

      “I don’t think that’s possible,” he said, and then a stricken look covered his features, as if he’d said something he hadn’t meant to.

      “We haven’t had that talk yet,” she said, just loud enough that she could be heard over the falls.

      “Ellen, I don’t think...”

      “You’re right. I don’t want to talk.” She stood. “I’ve spent the last two days worrying about dying.”

      “Ellen...”

      She stepped around the fire. “There might not be another day, another time, and I want to celebrate being alive. With you.”

      Placing her hands on his shoulders, she went up onto her toes and kissed him.

      Chance grabbed her around the waist. Pulling her against his chest, he brought her feet off the ground. His mouth devoured hers as if he was hungry and a banquet was being served.

      I love an adventure. And Ellen and Chance’s story is just that. Take a fish-out-of-water female doctor, a man who has seen too much pain and can’t do enough to help the people he cares deeply about, add a developing country, push the two doctors together, mix in drug traffickers chasing them and the fun begins.

      I hope you enjoy Ellen and Chance’s quest for love.

      I want to thank Ron and Susie Woodward for sharing their experiences of working during medical mission trips in Central America. Because of their care many people like those I describe in my book now have better lives. You are both an inspiration to me.

      I love to hear from my readers. You can reach me at SusanCarlisle.com.
