Chase Family Series

She has everything she wants but time. He has everything he wants but her.   Hanging on by a thread, first-year resident, Maggie Watson doesn't need anything added to her plate. With a lead doctor always on her case, suffocating family expectations, and a schedule that leaves little time for sleep—the last thing she needs is a distraction. Especially in the striking form of Cam Chase, who stirs feelings in her she has no time for. He's maddening and vain, but he's also sweet and tender and despite her best efforts, she finds him taking the lead role in her fantasies. One kiss threatens to upend the delicate balance her life requires.   Cam Chase's infamously charmed life has everything he could ever want on the surface. Handsome and likeable, he's had all the money, women, and fame one could want. But when his father steps down from the charter jet company he built and leaves it in the hands of his brother Carter, Cam realizes he wants more. Lost and unsure where to look, he finds his purpose where he least expects it—reading to young patients under the watchful eye of Maggie Watson. She makes him want to be a better man and once he knows what he wants, he'll do anything to prove to her and his family that he is worthy of their trust.
