Description

She needs help— he needs to stay away.

Lena Scott loves everything about veterinary school, but then, she hasn't served her time in the equine repro department yet. She might not survive that incarceration, but she'll do anything to keep the school from finding out why. She'll never graduate if they do.

After escaping the bonds of a messy marriage, Kit Allen, D.V.M. returns to his old veterinary school alma mater. He's the perfect resident. Excelling at imparting knowledge to his students, he's on track for a tenure position. Getting involved with anything but a pager simply isn't on the cards.

When Lena's horse flips over and lands on her, it has to be Kit who finds her. Luckily for her, she's sworn off relationships after her last debacle. Kit discovers her problem, but by then, it's too late. Far too late. Besides, to a veterinary school faculty, relationships between residents and students are like oil and water; they just don't mix... or do they?

REVIEWERS ARE SAYING...

"Take an intelligent and determined student, a dangerously handsome resident, a strong-willed and belligerent horse, throw in a couple of secrets and a massive storm. You get a fabulous story of love, joy and new life. Fast-paced and full of excitement, a great little read."
–Kirsten Davidson, reader

"The story… displays Lizzi Tremayne's ability to develop strong characters… with a nice strong black moment to challenge our heroine and prove her worth."
