“Hey,” she said softly
Angus raised an eyebrow. “What?”
What, indeed? Words rushed to the tip of her tongue. Fliss was so close to confessing how badly she had missed having Angus in her life in the last few months. How much she missed hearing his voice. Feeling the touch of his hands…and lips. Just being with him. The words tangled together as they reached the warning sign flashing from the back of her mind.
“I’m just…glad you’re here,” Fliss whispered.
He didn’t smile, but there was a softening around his eyes as though any tension from their recent conversation had evaporated. “So am I,” he whispered back. “And try not to worry too much. We’ll get through this.”
Fliss nodded and bit her lip to stop it from trembling. “Yeah. We will. We’re working on the same side, aren’t we?”
A quick smile now. A wry one. “We always were,” Angus murmured. “You just couldn’t see it.”
Have you ever set yourself a challenge and then wondered whether you’d bitten off a bit more than you could chew?
My SPECIALIST EMERGENCY RESPONSE TEAM series has given me the opportunity to try new areas in the realm of rescue drama and emergency medicine, and I wanted something really dramatic, yet emotional, for this second book in the series. A setting that was so tense it would be enough to break down the barriers keeping my hero and heroine apart. I needed a cast of supporting characters and I needed a very short time frame and a confined environment to create the tension I wanted, but I couldn’t let those factors overwhelm the central romance.
One Night To Wed certainly wasn’t the easiest book to write, but when my lovely editor said she put the book down feeling like she’d been up all night with the characters, I knew I’d achieved at least some of what I set out to do. Challenges are great, aren’t they? I came across a quote recently that said, “We don’t know who we are until we know what we can do.”
I guess I’m still learning—and looking forward to finding out what else I can do. Happy reading and all the best for your next challenges.
With love,
Alison

IT WAS a most unpleasant sensation.
The hairs on the back of Felicity Slade’s neck rose slowly and the nasty prickle was enough to make her lose concentration on the pulse she could feel beneath her fingertips.
A reflection of her sudden disquiet showed in the faded blue eyes of her elderly patient.
‘Something wrong, Fliss?’
There were no words that could convey such a formless fear and for a split second Fliss simply stared blankly, still caught by that primeval and totally unexpected physical reaction to a sense of danger.
Her patient patted her hand. ‘Don’t look so worried, love. I’ve been expecting bad news. This old ticker of mine’s been on its last legs for years.’
Fliss was mortified. How unprofessional СКАЧАТЬ
