Description:
IN 1886, ONLY A HEADSTRONG WOMAN COULD HOPE TO BE A DOCTOR Banner O'Brien overcame every obstacle and won her coveted medical diploma. Still she longed to escape from Portland, and the nightmares that left her shaking, screaming one man's name. She fled to the Washington Territory to accept a position with Dr. Adam Corbin; arrogant, handsome, and, some said, violent. Although Banner respected his skills, she was unnerved by the nearness of this moody, powerful man. Would she ever free his heart from the mysteries of his past?
