Confidential Rejuvenations...hot bodies are our specialty!  This is on the back cover!

This is another Review ala Rae's Mom.

This is such a cute book. I enjoyed the little kids in this book. Their comments and remarks in here are hilarious. I love firefighters. Laura Marie Altom does a great job. I really enjoyed this book!

Back Cover:

Sexy, wealthy daredevil Toby Haynes had bet his best friend he could seduce starry- eyed Amelia Lambert into his bed. When she left him after a single night of passion, Toby swore he would win her back— then he would be the one to walk away!

Meeting once again in Monaco had thrown Amelia back into Toby's arms. And the game of cat and mouse was on. What Toby didn't anticipate were Amelia's own captivating rules of temptation….

Favourite Scene:

Amelia took a fortifying breath. “Toby slept with me on a bet.”

“Oh, please. He’s crazy about you. And the way he looked at you when he opened his dice…” She fanned her face. “I almost had an orgasm for you.”                                                                                                                          

Bk #55--Back Cover: Luke Chisum spent most of his life running from his past. Now a family crisis has brought the former River Bluff daredevil home. Home to the small-town girl he still loves--and the secret that could tear them apart again.

At the end of the Civil War, Nurse Laurel decides to take the last words uttered by the soldiers that died in her care to their kin. When accosted by bandits, a man named Creede saves her. Creede has been looking for his son. He decides to travel with her and slowly they both help each other through their grief and fall in love.

Bethan Steele is a relief society nurse who was recently caught in an explosion in Beirut. Her friend was killed and Bethan was sent back to England for recovery, and although her wounds are now mended she's sort of got PTSD so her boss insists that she can't be sent back into the field.

I got this one because I liked the author's books with another publisher. Leaping Hearts is still my favourite, but this one comes close.

Vital Signs is a very emotional book. It takes you into the pediatric ward of a hospital where life runs the gamut from almost healthy to dying children. This is Hailey Bergstrom's world. She loves being a nurse - even when she feels so sad she wants to ball her eyes out. But she's gratified when she's the one they call to comfort the children and parents of this special ward. And she'll do anything to keep the spirits up of her precious charges.
