The Nurse and the Neonatal Surgeon (Sacred Heart Children's Hospital, #1)

“When I transferred to the charity hospital in Uganda, I was pregnant with his secret baby. Now I’m back, and I’m bringing our fourteen-month-old love child with me.”

I have to tell him, but I can’t. It’s not that simple.

Dr Hartcliffe, the world-renowned neonatal silver-fox surgeon at Sacred Heart Children’s Hospital, is engaged to a superstar plastic surgeon now. The last thing he’s expecting when I return from secondment is that I’ll be bringing our secret love-child along with me.

It was just a fling; a difficult shift, a rainy day, forced proximity... and sparks flew. My big, brash, no-nonsense northerner surgeon claimed me for one night only before I left for my placement in Uganda.

Our workplace reunion could jeopardise his engagement and his burgeoning career in the states; and besides, he said he never wanted children. I can’t possibly tell him now.

But how can I keep up this secret when we’re working side-by-side again, and our old flame might just be reigniting?

Get ready for some big, grumpy, doctor-daddy drama in this London-based secret baby romance. Second chances, forbidden love, and a secret love child against a backdrop of neonates in critical care.
Max Hartcliffe saves the lives of premature babies every day – but can he be the hero when he finds out he has a baby of his own?
