When Aurora "Ora" Aikins takes a vacation, leaving her fiancé at home, she crosses paths with the handsome Dr. Jason Lartey. Despite their attraction, and the seemingly familiarity between them, Ora pushes the feelings that grow for Jason aside to fulfill her promises to the man she left back home. Years later, with no fiancé and marriage, the two reunite in Ora's hospital, and this time, Jason isn't about to let her get away from him a second time.First of all, let me just say, I am biased to the name Aurora. I am, like sickeningly so, so the female lead had me caught at her name. Yeah, I'll do that for a character. Moving on ...I really appreciated how this author brought the characters together, but kept them pure, in their own way. Ora, specifically. While the heroine might have felt she crossed a line during her time with Jason the first go round, I certainly didn't think so. You can't help who you fall in love with, after all. Sometimes love happens in an innocent, unassuming way. That's how it felt with these two. That probably should have been a clue for Ora that this man was meant to be hers, but instead, she took a different route, and ran. It happens. I wanted to proverbially smack her one over it.And then we have Jason ... without giving anything away, he waited his time out. And then, he did what he had to, to get her back. You have to appreciate a confident man who knows what he wants and goes for it. He got a lot of props from me for that.I thought the characters had great chemistry. I adored the settings of the book. The author didn't drone on with details, but she kept it alive, nonetheless. I appreciated how the heroine was made work through her issues. Things don't fix themselves in a day--that's not real life. The title confused me for the longest time, but that got itself settled out and I thought it was a cute tie in for the plot, really. If you're looking for a clean romance, and you enjoy the medical aspect, pick this one up and give it a shot.
