A Second Chance at Forever
Nurse Anne Matson’s structured life derails when a familiar patient enters her ER—the ex-husband she left ten years ago. Matthew Clark is the last person she expects to see in Paradise, Colorado, especially with a nine-year-old daughter. The single dad is running the town’s biggest expansion project, but one thing stands in his way—Anne’s Victorian home. When his daughter falls ill, and Anne volunteers to help with her care, Matt recognizes he’s never stopped loving the spirited beauty. But how can he get her back when he plans to take all she has left...or can Anne see she has everything to gain—the family she’s been denied?
He was real, all right. All too real.
All six feet and wide shoulders worth of him. He’d loosened his tie and his hair was all mussed and all she could do was stare, asking herself the same question her friend had. Why had she left such a man?
“Give me your keys. I’ll change your tire.”
Roused from her reverie, she remembered her disabled car. “I can do it. I don’t need rescuing.”
“Never crossed my mind. But even you can use a little help sometimes.”
When he was done, Anne reached into the car and handed him disinfectant wipes.
Matt smirked. “A true nurse. Always prepared.”
But when he stepped closer, she wasn’t prepared. Not the least bit.
Why? They were over. She had moved on…to a safe life.
A lonely life, said an inner voice.
The more she was around Matt, the more confused she became. Or was she? Actually, what she wanted became clearer. But did she have the courage to reach for it?

Many of the Paradise series books are set in a fictional medical setting; however, the information in these works of fiction should
never be considered a substitute for seeking medical advice. All errors are wholly mine.
