Dr Defiant's Secret Baby

A Friends to Lovers Medical Romance (Harbour Children's Hospital, Book 1)

Dr Sam Doukas isn’t one to keep his feelings private – the whole hospital knows when he has a problem. Except suddenly Sam isn’t talking, and now I know something’s really wrong.

As one of his senior nurses, I urge him to see a doctor. He’s supposed to set a good example. But when Sam announces he’s facing the big C, it churns up all kinds of feelings between us...and turns up all kinds of heat.

He says it’s wrong to use me for healing, but I think our chemistry speaks for itself.

Sam wants to protect me from his illness, but I’m a nurse and a single mother. I know what I want. How can we explore love if he’s too defiant to let me in?

Our sensual healing on his canal boat leads to a very special secret. I know I should tell him, but I can’t until the time is right...that is, if it’s ever right.

I think he has enough on his plate, and frankly, so do I.

Could a surgeon battling cancer really handle a baby, if he’s not even ready to handle us?

Get ready for some doctor-daddy drama in this secret baby romance set in a little children’s hospital by the harbour. Friends to lovers, forced proximity, and a secret baby against the backdrop of kids in specialist care.

Dr Sam Doukas is facing the greatest health challenge of his career – his own. Faced with an uncertain future, he never expected love to come knocking...or for it to bring a special gift from the stork.
