📚 Book 2 of a completed 3-book series
When Dr. Briana Ortiz first meets the new doctor at her hospital, he seems like an absolute nightmare—but then Jacob Maddox does something unexpected: he writes her a genuinely thoughtful letter that completely changes the game. What starts as a grudging truce over lunch dates and hilariously random conversations (tiny horses, anyone?) gradually transforms into something neither of them saw coming. As Jacob proves himself to be thoughtful, funny, and genuinely kind—and especially when he offers an act of generosity that touches Briana's heart—she finds herself falling for the guy she was absolutely certain she'd hate forever.
Reading soundtrack
A contemporary romance where gruff meets sunshine, skepticism melts into tenderness, and witty banter leads to stolen moments. Blend indie pop, soft R&B, and acoustic indie—think yearning vocals, warm production, and songs about unexpected connection. Capture the electric tension and vulnerable sweetness of falling for someone who surprises you.
