  Dr. Thane Clayborne was a sexy stick-in-the-mud, Autumn O'Neil decided! Or why would he keep complaining about all the lively activities she planned for the residents of the nursing home he directed? It was true, that she brought endless chaos to his well-organized facility, but she believed that making her grandfather and the other seniors happy was more important than keeping the peace. Thane fought his attraction to this mischievous angel, but she was irresistible, a warm and wise Pollyanna who tempted him to let go, to break the rules and run a little wild. Autumn adored making her gentlemanly suitor lose control, but she feared the man ' who'd sacrificed a dream for another's happiness could, never care for a woman who'd run scared when it counted most. Could Thane's compassion soothe the secret pain that haunted her nights, and would Autumn have the courage to heal her hero's scars?
