Under the Knife by Tess Gerritsen Dr. Kate Chesne knew that no surgery was ever routine, but when a colleague and friend perished on the operating table during a simple gallbladder extraction, her very profession was threatened. Had she misread an EKG...or was something, someone else the cause of death?
A malpractice suit turned Kate's Hawaiian paradise into a living hell. No one, not the hospital administrator and certainly not prosecuting attorney David Ransom, believed in her innocence. David had seen more than his share of pain dispensed from the lofty, godlike medical community...but soon even he had to admire Kate's dedication.
David hoped she was wrong. For if murder had been committed in OR #7, Kate Chesne was the next target of a fiendishly clever psychopath.
Adam's Story by Annette Broadrick Caitlin Moran never asked to be different. Her ability to see what others could not had brought her nothing but grief. To escape from her 'gift', she retreated to the remote mountains of Mexico. Then, a vision of violence in the dark of the night brought her Adam St. Clair - and a desire that ached for fulfillment.
While helping the handsome Texan search for the man who had betrayed him, Caitlin discovered passion. But when a vision revealed his enemy's identity, Adam refused to believe her. Would she be able to save his life, or would the love that she had finally found end in heartbreak?
Return to Yesterday by Annette Broadrick Felicia St. Clair wasn't going to let it happen again. She came home to Texas to search for her missing brother, Adam, but - she wasn't going to fall for Dane Rineholt - she'd made that mistake once, and that was enough.
But from the moment Felicia saw Dane waiting for her, she knew she didn't stand a chance. She longed to be wrapped in the strong arms that had held her all too briefly. Searching for Adam would be dangerous, but traveling with Dane would pose an even greater risk. Soon Felicia was in deeper than she'd ever meant to be...and loving every minute.
Everything But Time by Mary Lynn Baxter They had known passion and the joy of shared dreams - and they had had everything but time.
Danielle Davis and Keir McBride had shared the kind of love few ever know, but her abrupt disappearance, necessary to save her life - and that of her unborn child - doomed them to a life apart.
Or did it? The danger that had driven Danielle away returned to haunt her, and in its wake came Keir, to protect her. The second chance fate handed them was a rare gift, and one they were determined to cherish - now that they had the time.
Marriage, Diamond Style by Mary Lynn Baxter Virile, fiery Matthew Diamond didn't believe in love! And he certainly didn't like cool, collected women like Brittany Fleming. What Matthew loved was a challenge, and the chance to thaw this ice princess was one he couldn't pass up - so he decided to turn on the charm and turn up the heat.
Waking up in Matthew's rugged arms was hardly what insurance investigator Brittany had planned when she'd traveled to the wilds of Texas on a case. And she never dreamed of the consequences of their passionate night together! Then, when Matthew abruptly announced he intended to make her his bride, Brittany knew she wanted love - and was determined to find it in marriage, Diamond style.
I would give this book 2.5 stars. I picked up to read on a day when I would be spending minimum 8 hours on a train. It helped pass the time. It contains five stories that include romance. I probably found the medical suspense by Tess Gerritson most interesting but they were all ok reads.
