Euan drew closer, an unspoken question on his lips, and in response to Sam’s unspoken answer he slid his fingers along her jaw, burying them in her hair.
When his lips brushed against her cheek Sam forgot all the reasons why this wasn’t such a good idea. He stopped, his mouth barely an inch from hers. ‘This is the best part. Waiting …’ Her whole body felt as if it might melt in his arms. ‘Wondering whether you’ll kiss me?’ ‘Wondering what it’ll be like when I do.’ She felt his lips curl against hers. ‘We could do this for hours …’ Sam could stare into his honest eyes, feel his body against hers, warm and protective, for as long as she liked. ‘Nah. I don’t have the self-control.’ He kissed her. He’d lied. The waiting wasn’t the best part at all. The work-life balance. Which of us gets it right all the time? I’ll be the first to admit that sometimes I bite off more than I can chew, and work seems to overtake everything else, but still I aim to keep a balance. Sam doesn’t even try to get it right. She’s always worked hard, but now she’s working to forget the personal tragedy which shattered everything she’d built. And since the memories won’t go away that means she’s working pretty much all the time. When she meets Dr Euan Scott work suddenly takes on a whole new meaning for her. But if he’s going to help her face her past he’ll have to persuade Sam to take some time off. I hope you enjoy Euan and Sam’s story.

Cursed from an early age with a poor sense of direction and a propensity to read, ANNIE CLAYDON spent much of her childhood lost in books. After completing her degree in English Literature she indulged her love of romantic fiction and spent a long, hot summer writing a book of her own. It was duly rejected and life took over. A series of U-turns led in the unlikely direction of a career in computing and information technology, but the lure of the printed page proved too much to bear, and she now has the perfect outlet for the stories which have always run through her head, writing Medical Romance™ for Mills & Boon®. Living in London—a city where getting lost can be a joy—she has no regrets for having taken her time in working her way back to the place that she started from. For George and Jenny ‘Well-written brilliant characters—I have never been disappointed by a book written by Annie Claydon.’ —Goodreads.com on THE REBEL AND MISS JONES Contents
