Dr. Tony O'Connor, chief of staff at St. Joseph's Hospital, has a neurotic and bitter mother, a father who deserted the family long ago and is now coming back, an ex-wife who walked out on him and his beloved little daughter, a hospital to run which has financial problems. Now he's a patient in Emerg because he slipped on a wrapper, and because of a series of unfortunate incidents, his life is in danger. He's in a justifiable rage. Kate Lewis, the hospital's patient rep, is an expert at resolving anger issues, but her ability is being severely tested with Tony. The series of events goes from bad to horrible, and after he ends up in intensive care, he threatens to fire half the staff. His impossible mother and his complicated family issues make everything even worse. Kate’s personal life is also hopelessly messy. The father of the stepdaughter she adores is controlling her life. She slowly realizes that neither she nor Tony has ever learned to put their needs first. They must figure out what to do about their feelings for each other—and their two little girls. Tony's daughter and Kate's stepdaughter, are more than eager to help them with that lesson by complicating the whole mess even more; they're adept at manipulation. Kate and Tony need a rescue remedy. Maybe tough love is the answer?

From USA Today Bestselling Author Laura Scott Walking the line between danger and love! Undercover Memory Loss… Coast Guard Lieutenant Quinn Finnegan is shocked when he rescues his believed-to-be-dead former fiancée, Sami Lopez, from the middle of Lake Michigan. But even more stunning is the fact that Sami doesn’t remember who she is or why she was crossing the lake in a storm. Sami was a cop, so he believes she may have been working undercover in a case that had gone terribly wrong. The boat explosion was no accident. And when the threats against Sami escalate, it’s difficult to know who they can trust. Sami can’t ignore the desperate sense of urgency plaguing her. There is something critically important she needs to do. But what? Thanks to Quinn and his family, she is alive but blindly stumbling in the middle of danger. Given the attraction between her and Quinn, it doesn’t make sense that she would’ve left him two years earlier. Will they survive long enough for her memory to return? And once that happens, is there even a remote possibility for a second chance at love?
In this book, Marijane Osborn translates into modern English nine lively medieval verse romances, in a form that both reflects the original and makes the romances inviting to a modern audience. All nine tales contain elements of magic: shapeshifters, powerful fairies, trees that are portals to another world, and enchanted clothing and armor. Many of the tales also feature powerful women characters, while others include representations of “Saracens.” The tales address issues of enduring interest and concern, and also address sexuality, agency, and identity formation in unexpected ways.
