Dr. Stephanie Bennett has had a tough couple of years. Having lost everything that she held dear to her heart, Stephanie just wants to forget about the past and start afresh, and when a temporary job becomes available in Santa Barbara, she packs her bags and prepares to begin anew in a place that holds no memories or heartbreaking sadness for her. Not having practiced medicine for years, Stephanie is looking forward to regaining her professional confidence. But what Stephanie hadn’t counted on was being attracted to her colleague, the deliciously attractive Dr. Phil Hansen.

Handsome, athletic and charismatic, Phil’s legendary charm has made him a favourite with staff and patients alike and the laidback doctor cannot but be drawn to his guarded new colleague. Not that Phil has got much time to think about relationships at the moment – his father and stepmother have gone on a much needed break and left him in charge of his four year old brother Robbie who is proving to be quite a handful! Phil doesn’t have a clue about looking after children. He needs all the help he can get and wastes no time in roping all of his female colleagues into giving him a hand – with one notable exception: Stephanie Bennett!

Stephanie might be an obstetrician, but she refuses to have anything to do with children – and she certainly will not help Phil with looking after Robbie. However, Phil can be pretty persuasive and, as the two start getting to know each other better, Stephanie can start to feel the defenses which she had built around her heart slowly crumble as she begins to care for Robbie – and fall hopelessly in love with Phil!

Stephanie has not felt this alive in years, yet she knows that she must not allow Phil to get too close to her.
For the past couple of years, Stephanie has lived with a terrible secret. A secret which has blighted her life and left her determined never to let anyone close ever again. Is Stephanie prepared to trust Phil with her darkest secret? Or will she continue to let the past destroy her life?
