       Dear Reader

      I hope you’ve been enjoying the Sydney Harbour Hospital continuity so far.

      When I was asked to take part in this fabulous series I was thrilled to learn that I would be amongst seven other amazing Down Under authors helping to create this very special world and decorate it with real-life heros and heroines who are as dedicated to their work as they are to each other.

      Being so far away from the rest of the world, I believe those of us in this little corner of the southern hemisphere bring a unique voice to the Medical line and to romance fiction as a whole. I am honoured to be counted amongst this number, and am so excited about the unfolding stories throughout this series.

      In Book Three we see Luca and Mia, two ER docs whose potent sexual chemistry draws them together despite their better judgement. And it makes walking away harder than they ever imagined. I hope you enjoy their story and continue on to read the next five books.

      The Sydney Harbour Hospital may be fictitious, but with its views over the sparkling harbour and the famous sails of the Opera House it’s the perfect backdrop for all our couples to fall in love.

      I hope you’ll agree.

      Love

       Amy

       To six Aussies and a Kiwi—thank you! I had so much fun writing this continuity with you. And to Meredith Webber, an amazing writer, fabulous mentor and generous friend. Your down-to-earth advice always keeps me grounded and your encouragement has led me into new worlds.

      CHAPTER ONE

      DR MIA MCKENZIE didn’t know it yet but her night was about to go from bad to worse.

      And that was no mean feat.

      A full moon didn’t usually bode well for emergency departments and this clear, cold Saturday night was no different. Moonbeams sprinkled like fairy dust on the world-renowned surface of Sydney Harbour, lending a deceptive calm to the view from the windows of Sydney Harbour Hospital.

      But inside the walls of the emergency department it was crazy town!

      At two in the morning there had been no let up from the insanity. SHH, or The Harbour to those who worked there, was living up to its reputation as the busiest emergency department in the city.

      ‘I could have been a dermatologist,’ Mia grumbled to Dr Evie Lockheart, her best friend and flatmate, as she strode out of the resus cubical, turning her back on the torrent of abuse from a drug addict she’d just brought back from the brink of death.

      ‘They don’t get abused by patients at half past stupid o’clock. You know why? Because they’re sleeping. No on-call, no such thing as a dermatological emergency in the middle of the night, no urgent consults required.’

      Evie, clutching a portable ultrasound unit, grinned. ‘You’d be bored to tears.’

      Mia’s long blonde ponytail swished against her shoulder blades as she made her
