Dear Reader
Have you ever known a people-pleaserâsomeone who will do anything to keep others content? Perhaps you are one. If so, you know what a huge undertaking making everyone happy can be. Impossible, even. Yet Polly Seymour, RN, plods ahead with her challenging life, insisting upon sprinkling seeds of joy everywhere she goes, whether a person wants those seeds of joy tossed their way or not.
On the other hand, we might all also know the proverbial curmudgeon. A person who has been kicked in the teeth by life once too oftenâsomeone who has forgotten what itâs like to be a part of the huddled masses, yearning for something better. Most observers would give up on him and his sour moods. But someone astute at reading people, like Polly, recognises a man with a big heart even if he doesnât want to admit it. Because any man whose day isnât complete until heâs said goodnight to each of his hospitalised paediatric patients canât be all bad, right? Meet Dr John Griffin.
Throw these two most unlikely people together on a busy orthopaedic hospital ward, let them duke it outâher killing him softly with her charm, him coming off gruffer than he intendsâand watch the sexual sparks fly. It just goes to show you never know which small gesture or innocent invitation might reach inside another personâs heart and start the healing.
Now imagine running into someone your first day on a new jobâsomeone who will change your lifeâbut all you feel is annoyed. Imagine being the newest employee on the ward and still having the nerve to approach the head of the department with a grand idea. Imagine two damaged people, struggling to make it through each day, using completely different coping mechanisms. Meet Polly and John, two people I hope youâll root for as they stumble and fumble their way towards that often elusive prizeâtheir very own happy-ever-after.
Welcome to NYC Angelsâthe hospital that wonât turn anyone away.
Happy reading!

MONDAY MORNING POLLY SEYMOUR dashed into the sparkling marble-tiled lobby of New Yorkâs finest pediatric hospital, Angelâs. The subway from the lower East Side to Central Park had taken longer today, and the last thing she wanted to do was be late on her first day as a staff RN on the orthopedic ward.
Opting to take the six flights of stairs instead of fight for a spot in one of the overcrowded elevators, she took two steps at a time until she reached her floor. As she climbed, she thought through everything sheâd learned the prior week during general hospital orientation. Main factoid: Angel Mendez Childrenâs Hospital never turned a child away.
That was a philosophy she could believe in.
