Taking a risk with the single dad!
Ellie Munroe retreated to the stunning Yorkshire Dales for a brand-new start. Her plans definitely didnât include developing a crush on her boss, GP Daniel Saunders! Ellie has been burned before, but the handsome single dad tempts her out of sadness...
After being widowed, Daniel believes his heart is more damaged than Ellie deserves. But she awakens a longing that has him wishing for more, and he realizes falling for Ellie could be a risk worth taking!
âWelcome to The Larches, Eleanor. Itâs good to have you on board.â
Ellie felt relief wash over her as she reached for his hand. She had completely misread the situation, it appeared. Daniel wasnât thinking of rescinding his offer after all. His hand closed around hers and a frisson ran through her when she felt the strength of his fingers envelop hers. For some reason she couldnât explain, it felt right to have him hold her handâright and wonderfully reassuring. Even though she knew nothing about him, she felt safe with him. Safe and cherished.
âItâs good to be here,â she murmured, quickly withdrawing her hand.
She dredged up a smile, needing to rid her head of such nonsense. Daniel Saunders was her employer: no more and no less than that. He wasnât going to have any impact on her life outside work...
Dear Reader,
When I had the idea for this book I didnât realize how much I was going to enjoy writing itâor that it would lead to a whole trilogy set in the Larches GP practice in the Yorkshire Dales!
As soon as Ellie and Daniel appeared on the page they had me hooked. Then, as I built the story around their budding romance, other characters started to clamor to have their stories told as well. It was a real snowball effect, and I hope you get as much pleasure from reading the series as I am writing it.
Both Ellie and Daniel have a lot of baggage when they meet, and they certainly arenât looking for love. However, they soon discover that it isnât always possible to do the sensible thing. While they both know it isnât the right time for them to have a relationship, they simply canât help themselvesâeven though theyâre sure it canât last.
Helping them realise that they can find a way around their problems was totally engaging. I agonised over the decisions they made, felt for them when they thought they had to part, and rejoiced when they realised they simply couldnât live without each other. Some characters are simply meant to be together. Like Ellie and Daniel!
Love,

CHAPTER ONE
SHE COULD HAVE been beautiful with that fine clear skin and those huge grey eyes. However, the severely cropped black hair and strictly functional clothing did nothing to enhance her appearance. As he took stock of the woman seated in front of his desk, Daniel Saunders found himself wondering why Eleanor Munroe had failed to make the most of her considerable assets. Was she deliberately trying to disguise her femininity for some reason, playing down the fact that she was a highly attractive woman?
âRight then, Dr Munroe, we may as well get straight down to business.â
Daniel dismissed that strangely unsettling thought as he picked up her CV. He skimmed through it once more, although he already knew the facts by heart. Dr Eleanor Munroe was thirty-five years old, with a birthday coming up the following month. She had read medicine at Cambridge and graduated with a First Class Honours degree. After completing her rotations at St Linusâs Hospital in London, she had opted to go into general practice and had trained at a busy practice in Kent and subsequently been hired by them too. She had supplied references from the head of the practice and had added a codicil to the bottom of her CV that gave Daniel permission to phone and speak to her referee directly.
