Baden had never seen a sky like it. Twinkling stars in all their sparkling glory rained their light down on them. Then he saw a streak moving across the sky.
‘Is that a comet?’
Kate turned to him, her face alive with excitement. ‘Yes.’
He pulled her close, loving the way her curves fitted into him. ‘It’s a special night all round.’
She laid her head on his shoulder. ‘One worth remembering.’
Her quiet words unexpectedly speared him. One night. It was what they both wanted, what they had both agreed to. Neither of them was able to offer more. He couldn’t risk loving again. He had to protect Sasha. Kids loved easily, but as Kate didn’t want a relationship he couldn’t risk Sasha getting attached. Another loss could devastate her.
But he had tonight. They had less than twelve hours before real life returned. Before he was a doctor again, before he was a father again. Before life returned to what it had been.
So why the hell was he out here looking at stars?
He swung Kate into his arms and took her back inside.
I am really excited and honoured to have a book out in Mills & Boon’s centenary year! I started reading Mills & Boon® Medical™ Romance many long, hot summers ago, as a teenager on the beach. I’ve always loved the drama and excitement of Medical Romances, so it seemed a natural progression to try and write one. It took me ten years and four manuscripts, but the wonderful Mills & Boon editors always read my submissions and offered constructive and encouraging advice.
I live in a town where you are only one or two handshakes away from everyone. At times this has its disadvantages, but one of the overwhelming advantages is a sense of community. With that in mind I created Outback town Warragurra. This town has its problems, but it also has its strengths, and when one of its own is under threat it draws together as a community, united in purpose.
Against this backdrop, Baden and Kate struggle with their attraction for each other. Baden and his daughter, Sasha, are recovering from loss and creating a new life. Kate is rebuilding her life and filling it with her work at the flying doctors’ base. Neither Kate nor Baden believe in ‘happy-ever-afters’, and they closely guard their hearts. But the Outback heat shimmers between them, and the township of Warragurra pushes them together, until they finally realise that to risk loving is what life is all about.
I hope you enjoy your visit to Warragurra, and that you will join me again later in the year for another Warragurra story.
Love
