Finding What You Truly Desire at Christmas


Dr. Erika Sheraton, a driven, general surgeon, has nothing in her life but her surgery practice and research. She has few social skills and drives people away with her brusque manner. When the hospital board mandates a two week vacation for her, she literally doesn’t know where to go. Finally, she decides to visit Cassie, her best friend from her childhood. Cassie lives in Wild River where Erika grew up. It’s been a long time, she hopes Cassie will take her in, but what will the reunion be like?

Reed Reynolds, Cassie’s brother, is a search and rescue team leader. He remembers Erika from one night when they were lost in the mountains, and he held her because she was afraid of the dark. Now that she’s back he sees the same stuck-up brat he remembers, but there was that one night when she seemed human.

The romance between Erika and Reed starts from the moment they set eyes on each other, fueled by a few cranberry-vodka cocktails. It gets pretty steamy at some points, but when Erika returns to Anchorage, Reed wonders if they can hold a long distance relationship together.

For me, the best part of the book was the exciting description of search and rescue in the mountains. This is the first book in the Wild River Series, and I hope the focus continues to be on search and rescue work. Erika was a good character, but Reed stole my heart. he was so brave and he cared so much about Erika. If you like steamy romance with a great setting, this is a good one.

I received this book from Harlequin for this review.
