I try to stay away from Harlequin, Crinsom Romance etc publishers, because I don'tconsider them to publish very good story s.  I have to eat my words here with Rachael Cross.In this story, the woman, Maddy, has RA, which is very painful disease with flare ups, hospitalizations etc. It doesn't get better, but often worse.  She all ready lost a boyfriend in the past, because he couldn't deal with her being in the hospital and living with the disease as a partner.My hat is off to Rachael for accurately describing how it is to live with such a disability including how Maddy wakes in the morning stiff and painful and doesstretching to try to ease some of her pain.  She also shows how Asher who is falling in love with Rachael, starts researching this disease( he knew nothingabout it before) and gets her into a specialist and pays for her special new medication.  As often can happen with medications for diseases, Maddy ends up in the hospital due to a complication from it.When Asher proposes to Maddy and she first says NO--Here is what reallyhit home for me-- Maddy states "There's no cure.  I'm not going to get better, butwill get worse-?Asher says "So? I mean, yeah, so we'll deal with itI also liked how Asher used humor to get Maddy to laugh and defuse tough conversations concerning her disability.Thank-you Rachael for doing a romance about a lady with a disability (RA)and portraying the characters so realistically.
