Dedicated burn surgeon Kate Sinclair shields her tender heart behind a white coat and a coolly professional manner. But something about the little patient the nurses dub “Iron Man” and his vital flyboy father challenges her as a doctor and a woman.
Since the car crash that killed his wife and almost took his son, pilot Patrick MacNeill’s life has revolved around his little boy. No one—no woman and certainly no interfering doctor—can intrude on their bond, forged in love and pain.
When little Jack’s care brings these two together, it ignites a passion they can’t ignore. But their growing involvement threatens Patrick’s emotional barriers and Kate’s professional future. With so much at stake, will she trust her judgment...or her heart?

He rested one hand on the wall above her, close enough for her to feel the warmth emanating from his body, close enough for his breath to touch her face. She saw his eyes, with their thick, short lashes, his pupils nearly swallowing the blazing blue. Her stomach squeezed into her chest, crowding her lungs. She couldn’t breathe. She felt the warmth of his arm, close by her head. She heard her blood thundering in her ears, and the rasp of his quickly indrawn breath.
He kissed her.
It was over before she could say if she liked it, before she had time to react. He lifted his head, and she felt the absence of his mouth more keenly than she had felt its pressure a moment before.
“Well?”
She lifted her chin. She had to, to meet his gaze.
Felt pretty corny. I did not feel the connection between the main characters. They're physically attracted to each other and then boom love. It did not flow for me
Steamy and satisfyingStrong but insecure professional woman meets strong but more than slightly broken, ex-military single dad. A few triggers - burn victims are always a difficult topic - but overall, handled well and ultimately satisfying. I'll look for Patrick's brother's stories!

I always admire Virginia Kantra's writings. She's one of my favorite authors capable of creating such beautiful love strories. I couldn't explain how much I loved this book. I burst into tears at the end of the prologue when Patrick sang a lullaby to his painful baby.Dr. Kate bacame one of my favorite heroines because of her kind heart and strong character. I loved the way the hero and heroine's relationship got started and gradually developed into something more intense, sweet and wonderful. It
I just finished this book and I loved it! Patrick was a perfect hero: tough, but soft when he needed to be. I loved the romance between Patrick and Kate. Their relationship developed at just the right pace.Well-rounded characters, very emotional. I loved the relationship between Patrick and his son. It sounds like this might be a very sad story, but it was very hopeful.Can't wait to read more of this series. I'll be reading more of Virginia Kantra's books!
Enjoyed this book.I plan on reading the rest of this series. I loved the fact it was in NC and talked about burn care as I used to work in a university affiliated Burn Centre. Her story was easy to read and didnt get bogged down on too any details. I would definitely recommend this book for others to enjoy.
I love books that involve kids, and young Jack in this story stole my heart. Not to mention his handsome and sexy flyboy father Patrick MacNeill. I have a thing for Flyboys...And Dr. Kate, well she just is someone you want to give a hug to and make her your friend. Even if she is a little prickly at times.. But you soon find out why and like I said want to become her friend. Good book. I really enjoyed it and I can't wait to read about the next to read about the next two sexy MacNeill brothers.
