This was a fun relationship to watch unfold, both protagonists are strong people who have to learn to see things from the other's perspective.  I enjoyed this story and will look for other titles by this author.Pediatric surgeon, Dr Holly Bell is a motivated, caring, goal-oriented person who keeps her life on track and is dedicated to her young patients. She is new to the city of Philadelphia, so she doesn't recognize the special visitor to the pediatric floor, pro baseball pitcher Nate Carter. Nate is a star player for the Philly team and is known as a party loving, lady loving kind of guy. But he is just as dedicated to his career as Holly is to hers. When they meet, sparks fly, and they begin dating.Nate' s approach to relationships is to enjoy them to the max and bail when it's not fun anymore. Holly' s approach to dating is not to waste too much time or get too invested into a relationship that obviously won't go anywhere.  Even though they have a great time together, can talk about everything, have amazing sex, and Holly admits that she loves him, Nate just can't get over his fear of commitment and won't promise fidelity. This is Holly's line in the sand. If she can't trust him, she can't see him anymore. Nate won't make a promise that he can't be guaranteed to keep, so he figures it's best not to make one at all. Nate really has to struggle with coming to terms with his own emotions and fears of failure that keep him running.**************SPOILER ALERT*********************SPOILER ALERT*******************Holly's life is threatened by the dangerously criminal father of one of her patients.
