I read this as a selection from a book club. I wasn't too sure about the choice since I had never read any of Virginia Kantra's books but I am very glad it was chosen.Patrick and Kate's is so poignantly told in this book. In the very beginning it starts with one of any parents worst nightmares and with Kate's history in that nightmare. Then moves forward to four years later and where they are now. Kate first met Patrick's son as a doctor in training at a burn unit but she did not meet Patrick only got a chance to observe his love and pain for his baby boy. Fast forward four years and Kate is back working in the same burn unit and filling in for the head of the unit, here she meets Jack again along with his dad. There is an instant attraction but neither is willing to even acknowledge it in anyway. Circumstances continue to throw them together and they finally can't ignore that attraction but still neither is willing to admit it may be more than a sexual attraction. Kate is too busy with her career and Patrick has no time since his priority is his son plus he is not ready for any kind of commitment beyond that. I loved watching this relationship build, it was very well told and kept me reading right through to the end.I will be reading more of this series. Just so you know this is a series but each can be read as a stand alone novel, I like to know this when I start a series so I thought some of you would like to know too.
