The Hardison Siblings-Jude's Heart-Book Three

Jude Hardison is a cardiologist and specialist in pediatric heart conditions. Jude has moved back to Flat Rock after studying and being involved in extensive research in New York. He has taken a position in the new heart wing at the local hospital and has caused quite a stir with the nurses.
Although Jude is a flirt by nature and loves women, he has always held to the belief that work and pleasure do not mix, so he is friendly with the staff and polite, but never goes beyond that, much to the disappointment of some. Jude is also a confirmed bachelor, preferring to play the field, rather than be tied down. However, all that might be about to change. His sister Caroline's new partner is a pretty brunette who will not stay in the same room as Jude, if she can prevent it. She has Jude puzzled and his interest is tweaked.
Amanda Sturges is a veterinarian who does not plan to marry and give a man control over her life. Her past involved an abusive stepfather and the control he had over her mother was a deciding factor in her decision to cut men out of her personal life. Her work is all that she is interested in.
Then she meets the devilishly handsome brother of her new partner. Jude Hardison can set her heart pounding just by looking at her with his rakish grin and knowing eyes, and Amanda is determined to avoid him at all costs. She is no fool and she knows that Jude could be the one to break through the protective shell she has built around herself.
