Sold to the Surgeon

Her heart isn’t part of the deal...and therein lies the problem. Between the County General ear, nose and throat department moving to a new facility and constantly cleaning up after an inept student nurse, Abigail Pointer has her hands full. At least her life plan is on track. She’s in line to be promoted soon, and in due course she and her fiancé, Rupert, will walk down the aisle and start a family in her inherited stone cottage. Her future looks quiet, predictable, safe. If it’s a bit lacking in the romance department, who is she to complain? The new surgical consultant on the ward, Greg Lincoln, is certainly shaking things up—and shaking her composure when a puddle of spilled milk sends both her and Dr. Tall, Dark and American landing in a tangled heap. From that moment, Greg is a pain in Abigail’s well-ordered routine...and a breath-taking monkey-wrench in her plan to settle for a less-than-exciting life. Especially when she begins to suspect her nice, safe engagement is on shaky ground. This Retro Romance reprint was originally published in 1988 by Mills & Boon.
