(Alternate cover edition of ASIN B0735KV36C)

She doesn't need a lover...

The last thing Dr. Lacy McGareth needs right now is the governor's far too charming younger brother distracting her. She needs to focus on her career and her friends and fixing the small ranch house that has been in her family for generations.

But that cowboy neighbor of hers is exceptionally good at getting through her defenses.

He wants to be more than a friend...

Travis Worthington-Deane had worked his butt off to build his ranch into one of the finest in Texas, but that doesn't mean he's all work and no play. He's more than willing to play with Lacy. To make her forget the nightmares that haunted her after she and her best friends had almost been killed.

To make her take a chance on him. Possibly forever.

Someone else needs her to smile just for him...

Someone with an axe to grind against those damned perfect Deane brothers. Someone far too close to Lacy. Someone who has far-reaching secrets he can't afford to get out. Someone whose grip on reality continues to deteriorate--rapidly.

Someone who demands more than Lacy will ever be able to give...

FIRST in the Finley Creek General Hospital Trilogy.
