Synopsis
There’s no such thing as a class divide – until you’re on separate sides.
Brianna Worthington has beauty, privilege and a very healthy trust fund. The only hardship she’s ever witnessed has been on the television. Yet when she’s invited to see how her mother’s charity, Medic SOS, is dealing with the aftermath of a tornado in South America, even Brianna is surprised when she accepts.
Mitch McBride, Chief Medical Officer, doesn’t need the patron’s daughter disrupting his work. He’s from the wrong side of the tracks and has led life on the edge, but he’s not about to risk losing his job for a pretty face.
Poles apart, dynamite together, but can Brianna and Mitch ever bridge the gap separating them?
Kathryn Freeman
Kathryn was born in Wallingford, England but has spent most of her life living in a village near Windsor. After studying pharmacy in Brighton she began her working life as a retail pharmacist. She quickly realised that trying to decipher doctors’ handwriting wasn’t for her and left to join the pharmaceutical industry where she spent twenty happy years working in medical communications. In 2011, backed by her family, she left the world of pharmaceutical science to begin life as a self-employed writer, juggling the two disciplines of medical writing and romance. Some days a racing heart is a medical condition, others it’s the reaction to a hunky hero…
With two teenage boys and a husband who asks every Valentine’s Day whether he has to bother buying a card again this year (yes, he does) the romance in her life is all in her head. Then again, her husband’s unstinting support of her career change goes to prove that love isn’t always about hearts and flowers – and heroes can come in many disguises.

What a brilliant read, I could not put the book down. Mitch the male character in the book is just like a minstrel sweet, a crispy hard outer with a melt in the middle centre.
…The cover did not go along with the story beneath; the depth of the characters and well-written prose hid beneath the saccharin illustration. Initially, this reader’s expectations were low. However, putting first impressions aside, the love story between the two characters was captivating and emotional. To say the occasional tear or deluge were shed are understatements. Wonderfully written and powerfully emotional, one truly cannot judge this book by its cover!

If you are looking for easy, relaxing romance then the Choc Lit authors should suit you. This charming love story features a beautiful, wealthy girl disenchanted with her shallow life who goes out to South America to help in a disaster area.

….The dialogue between Mitch and Brianna is filled with tension – both sexual and emotional – as they work alongside each other, which finally spill over to create some really good sex scenes that illustrate the strong chemistry between the pair. What I liked so much about both Mitch and Brianna is how they complimented each other so well despite their different backgrounds.
Overall, Ms. Freeman has definitely made me a fan of her books with this one and I can’t wait to read other books in this series — if there are any more to come.

Thoroughly enjoyed Kathryn Freeman’s second novel. Can’t wait for her next book. Like her first novel, this was was hard to put down….so much so, the family Sunday dinner was slightly burned! I forgive you Kate! One of life’s joys is a book you don’t want to put down. Nothing better than disappearing into a book and waiting for that stolen moment ( when cooking Sunday lunch for example!) to catch a few sneaky chapters. Bliss. Well worth the over cooked broccoli!
