Book 4
Maui Cowboy Surgeon
The last thing too busy and overtaxed Dr. Austin Makali'i, head of surgery at Maui Island Medical Center, wants to do is mentor a nurse. But Army First Lieutenant Wilhelmina Hendricks is no ordinary woman. Young, bright, and drop dead gorgeous, Willie is a force the all-too-grumpy surgeon must contend with or let go, a difficult choice given that her presence alone compels him to reassess his life and the way he’s been living it.
Willie has her baggage, too. She’s wary of men—and for good reason. In her teen years, she suffered one of the greatest assaults on her ability to trust those who should love and protect her.
Neither Willie nor Austin have been anxious to get to know one other, that is, until serendipity brings them together for a fateful horseback riding tour at Austin’s family ranch. Will these two take a chance on love or will fear from their past stories prevent them from a future together?
