       Now that he had caught her, he found himself in a very interesting position.

      Holding on to her was inappropriate, yet letting go of her seemed equally so. She was tiny beneath the figure-erasing scrubs. It was a crime against man to cover up such a beautiful body. He looked down at her and realized that if he wanted to kiss her she was in the perfect position for him to do so.

      He watched as she licked her lips and pressed them together. What an enticing mouth she had…Unfortunately he had to release her before any opportunity to taste those lips occurred. As a man experienced in the ways of romantic co-worker relationships, he knew that was a treat best left unsavored.

      “Sorry about that. Are you okay?”

      Reluctantly, he released her. With some amusement he watched a vivid blush cruise up her neck and into her cheeks. She was not as unaffected as she pretended to be. Interesting. Off-limits, but very interesting.

       Dear Reader,

      Thanks so much for picking up my latest Mills & Boon® Medical Romance™, which has all of my favourite elements: a great heroine, a fantastic hero, romance and family.

      This one is set in my adopted state of New Mexico, where green chili is the number one agricultural crop. After being in this state for so long I’ve begun to understand why the state is nicknamed ‘The Land of Enchantment’—because once you live here for a while you become enchanted and don’t want to leave it. I hope you enjoy the setting I’ve created and the characters who make their home here as well.

      If you find yourself in the neighbourhood of New Mexico stop for a visit. You might also find yourself enchanted—as I was.

      Love

       Molly

      MOLLY EVANS has worked as a nurse for thirty years and has taken her experiences as a travel nurse and turned them into wondrous settings for her books. Some of those assignments were in small rural hospitals, the Indian Health Service in Alaska and in the American southwest, as well as a large research hospital and many other places across the United States.

      After rambling for many years, the high desert of New Mexico is now where she calls home. When she’s not writing or attending her son’s hockey games she’s obsessed with learning how to knit socks, visiting with friends, or settling down in front of the fireplace with a glass of wine and her two hounds who are never very far away.

       CHAPTER ONE

      REBEL TAYLOR ROLLED her shoulders against the heat. Sweat tickled and trickled down her back as she crossed the steaming parking lot. It was a very hot day for the first of June, even for New Mexico.

      Movement in the backseat of a small sedan drew her attention. As an ER nurse, she was highly trained in skills of observation. Even the smallest detail made the difference between life and death. Frowning, she moved closer to the back window.

      Rebel dropped her backpack as she hit full ER nurse mode. “Hello?” She stepped closer and the bottom dropped out of her stomach.

      A toddler was strapped in the backseat.

      Alone.

      “Oh, God.” Panic flooded her, and her limbs went limp for half a second. She looked around at the parking lot full of cars but devoid of people. “Help! Someone help!”

      Tugging on the door handle brought her no results. The windows in the front were down a crack, but not enough to squeeze her arm through.

      The child’s cries grew into screams as he pulled on his hair. What Rebel had first thought was a seizure was the frustration of the toddler imprisoned in the heat.

      “Hold on, baby. Hold on!” She jerked her cellphone out of her pocket and called 911.

      Dr. Duncan McFee strolled across the parking lot toward the hospital, but had to pass through the lengthy, car-filled parking area. When the doctors’ car park was full, he parked with the rest of the staff. Heat bubbled up from the black surface and seemed to take on a life of its own, reaching out to drag passersby down into the dark depths. Days like this, he always wondered why he’d passed on that exotic job offer in the Caribbean. An ocean breeze would have been very welcome at the moment. If the desert had an ocean, it would be perfect.

      Up ahead, he noticed a woman with long, luxurious, curly red hair
