About this ebook

Can a Christmas kiss…

…lead to their happy-ever-after?

Nurse Hollee Cantrell is stunned when ex-army doc Clancy deOliveira begins working at her hospital. Years ago, they shared a passionate kiss—but then Clancy left and Hollee married his best friend. Now widowed, it’s time for Hollee to admit that her marriage was a sham and she’s never stopped thinking about Clancy. And as their desire reignites, it seems Clancy hasn’t forgotten her either…

“Ms. Beckett is a wonderful author whose books I normally find easy to get into…. Overall, Ms. Beckett has delivered a good read in this book where the chemistry between this couple was strong right from the beginning and only gets stronger as this story progresses….”
Harlequin Junkie on The Surgeon’s Surprise Baby

“Every medical romance I’ve read by Ms. Beckett has entertained me from start to finish, as she writes complex characters with interesting back stories, compelling dialogue that has me enjoying the growing relationship between the two main characters, and challenging obstacles for the characters to overcome and this story was no different.”

Author

Tina Beckett

A three-time Golden Heart finalist, Tina Beckett is the product of a navy upbringing. Always on the move, her travels eventually took her outside of the United States, where English reading material was scarce. Her supply of books eventually ran out, and she started writing her own stories, fashioned after the romance novels she'd loved through the years. She finished that first book and moved on to the next. After the fourth manuscript, she realised there was no going back...she was officially a writer. When not in the middle of her latest book, Tina enjoys crafting stained glass panels, riding horses and hiking with her family. Fluent in Portuguese, she divides her time between Brazil and the United States and loves to use exotic locales as the backdrop for many of her stories.

    Good second chance story. Hollee, Clancy, Jacob, and Clancy's sister Ava were all friends as teenagers. One day, Clancy shared a passionate kiss with Hollee, called it a mistake, and soon after left town. Hollee ended up marrying Jacob. She never knew that Jacob had told Clancy that he was in love with Hollee and that Clancy wasn't good enough for her. The story opens at Jacob's funeral after he was killed in action. Clancy is there but doesn't speak to her, as he's keeping a secret that could only hurt her.The book then picks up five years later. Clancy has left the military and taken a job as a pediatric plastic surgeon at a civilian hospital. He is stunned to see Hollee there, working as a nurse. The last he heard, she had moved away and was studying to become a vet tech. He's not sure he can handle working so close to the woman he never forgot. Hollee is just as surprised to see Clancy. Being near him stirs up the old memories and makes her think about what might have been.I liked the rekindling of the relationship between Hollee and Clancy. There is no doubt that the sparks between them are still there, though both try to resist at first. Hollee is not interested in falling in love again. Her marriage to Jacob left her doubting her judgment, and low in confidence in her appeal. Clancy still has doubts about his own worth, even though he turned his life around long ago. However, there's no doubt that the attraction between them is still strong. They give in to it once, then panic and pull away. But fate isn't done with them yet.Both Hollee and Clancy volunteer as part of a group headed to the mountains to help a town devastated by a flood and a tornado. I loved seeing them work together and that their friendship began to grow again. Each of them gained an appreciation for the other's strengths and abilities. There were some beautiful scenes of their teamwork and the depth of their empathy for the people they helped. Just as things looked truly promising for them, Hollee discovered the secret Clancy was keeping from her. Devastated by what she thought of as a betrayal, she said some harsh things and refused to listen to him. I ached for both of them, but especially for Clancy. Hollee had a visitor that gave her something to think about if she could just get past her insecurities. But it was Clancy's big moment at the end that won my heart. He exposed his vulnerabilities as he opened his heart to her, and she didn't let him down. The epilogue was great and showed how much their love had grown.
