Alec hesitated a moment, and then continued.
“Jillian, we’re having a family barbecue at my parents’ house this weekend—would you be willing to come with us? Me and Shelby?”
She caught her breath, knowing that if she agreed to go there would be no hiding their relationship. This was Alec’s way of including her in the warm embrace of his family. Was she ready for this step?
Yes. Absolutely. “I’d love to.” Jillian realised she’d just taken a gigantic step toward admitting to the world how she felt about him. Doubts instantly assailed her, and she pushed them away with determination.
There was really no reason she couldn’t have it all. A career and a family. A beautiful stepdaughter.
And, most importantly, Alec’s love.
BACHELOR DADS
Single Doctor… Single Father!
At work they are skilled medical professionals, but at home, as soon as they walk in the door, these eligible bachelors are on full-time fatherhood duty!
These devoted dads still find room in their lives for love…
It takes very special women to win the hearts of these dedicated doctors, and a very special kind of caring to make these single fathers full-time husbands!
Laura Iding loved reading as a child, and when she ran out of books she readily made up her own, completing a little detective mini-series when she was twelve. But, despite her aspirations for being an author, her parents insisted she look into a ‘real’ career. So the summer after she turned thirteen she volunteered as a Candy Striper and fell in love with nursing. Now, after twenty years of experience in trauma/critical care, she’s thrilled to combine her career and her hobby into one—writing Medical™ Romances for Mills & Boon®. Laura lives in the northern part of the United States, and spends all her spare time with her two teenage kids (help!), a daughter and a son, and her husband. Enjoy!

CHAPTER ONE
DR. JILLIAN DAVIS kept her head high, hopefully portraying a confidence she didn’t feel as she strode through the emergency department at Trinity Medical Center.
“You’re late.” Dr. Wayne Netter, one of her colleagues, glared at her from his arrogant stance behind the arena nurses’ station.
She ignored him, refusing to explain she was late as a result of her MRI scan being delayed. Her personal problems were none of his business. Impervious to his glare, she eyed the list of patients written on the whiteboard. “I see we have a full house.”
“There’s a couple of trauma victims on the way in,” Luanne, the charge nurse, piped up. “Multiple gunshot wounds. ETA less than two minutes.”
“Maybe I should stick around, in case you need help.” Wayne Netter suffered from delusions of grandeur, acting as if he was the backbone of the emergency department, which was why he could barely tolerate knowing Jillian had been chosen for the role of interim medical director over him.
She raised a brow. “Sure, if you like. Although it’s Friday night, and I wouldn’t want to hold up your plans.”
Wayne’s gaze narrowed and she imagined he was already internally debating with himself. Was it more important she believe he had big plans on a Friday night or that she needed his dubious expertise for two simultaneous traumas?
Decisions, decisions. She fought a smile, especially when Luanne comically rolled her eyes from behind Wayne’s back. Neither one of them particularly cared for the guy.
Clearing her throat, she turned her attention to Luanne. “Any other patient-care issues I need to know about?”
“Nope.” Luanne shot a quick glance at Dr. Netter and belatedly Jillian realized Wayne might take her innocent remark as something derogatory. She stifled a sigh as Luanne hastened to assure her, “Everything’s fine. The hospital beds are still pretty full and we have a few patients waiting on
