The Doctor's Lost-and-Found Heart

Two dedicated doctors. One remote jungle clinic. And a sudden outbreak that threatens both their patients and their guarded hearts.

Under the Argentine stars…

Dr Jack Kenner can’t refuse Amanda Robinson’s plea for help—even though it means returning to South America, where the ghosts of his past haunt him. Worse still, the tropical nights working with brave, fiery Amanda push Jack to his limits—for a man who has sworn never to risk his heart again, they offer the ultimate temptation…

Arriving at the village of Aldea de Cascada, he finds a remote clinic in crisis and a partner who challenges his stubborn emotional isolation. Tracking an elusive infection through the pediatric ward of Hospital de Caridad tests Jack’s clinical detachment—leaving his carefully guarded defenses in genuine jeopardy. Sharing quarters in a rustic guest hut only heightens the friction, where a thin dividing curtain fails to cool the simmering awareness between them.
