A love worth fighting for...
Cardiologist Thomas Wolfe’s specialty is mending broken hearts, but no one knows how much his own still hurts five years on...
Torn apart by the sadness of losing their little girl, Tom and his ex-wife, transplant surgeon Rebecca Scott, are virtually strangers, until they’re thrown together again at Paddington’s to save the life of another very special little girl. Can a miracle surgery prove that it’s never too late to give love a second chance?
How far back can you remember?
My earliest memory is of a pair of red shoes that I had when I was three years old—I still love red shoes!—and my love of big ships came from travelling from New Zealand to England when I was five years old. It took six weeks and I loved every minute of it!
I lived in London for eighteen months. My dad, who was a doctor, had a job at Hammersmith Hospital, and we lived in a basement apartment in Prince Albert Road—so close to the zoo that we could hear the animals at night sometimes. I started school there, and my favourite place to play was on Primrose Hill.
Setting a story in a place that was such an important part of my early life was such a treat and I even got to play in Regent’s Park and on Primrose Hill again! :)
Working with my talented colleagues at Mills & Boon Medical Romance has also been a treat. The threads in this series are very strong and so emotional that this was, at times, a heart-wrenching story to write.
What a privilege to bring those threads together and complete, not only a story that gives two people the chance of a love that will last for the rest of their lives, but also to celebrate the finale of all the other stories and the resolution of the conflict that runs through the Paddington Children’s Hospital series.
Happy reading!
With love,
Alison

HE’D KNOWN THIS wasn’t going to be easy.
He’d known that some cases were going to be a lot harder than others.
But Dr Thomas Wolfe had also known that, after the very necessary break, he had been ready to go back to the specialty that had always been his first love.
Paediatric cardiology.
Mending broken little hearts...
And some not so little, of course. Paddington Children’s Hospital cared for an age range from neonates to eighteen-year-olds. After dealing only with adults for some years now, Thomas was probably more comfortable interacting with the adolescents under his care here but he’d more than rediscovered his fascination with babies in the last few months. And the joy of the children who were old enough to understand how sick they were, brave kids who could teach a lot of people things about dealing with life.
Or kids that touched your heart and made doing the best job you possibly could even more of a priority. It had to be carefully controlled, mind you. If you let yourself get too close, it could not only affect your judgement, but it could also end up threatening to destroy you.
And Thomas Wolfe wasn’t about to let that happen again.
