Heart to heart
Mike Harkin is one lucky guy. Not just because he's miraculously survived a traumatic accident, but because he's finally met the elusive Ms. Right: the surgeon who saved his life. Dr. Catherine Cady doesn't know it yet, but Mike is about to transform himself into a man who's worthy of the second chance she's given him -- and worthy of a woman like her… The only bedside Catherine intends to share with Mike is in the hospital. It's not that she isn't powerfully attracted to his decadent good looks -- after all, she's only human. Still, a roguish casino mogul is hardly husband material -- even if he does seem to have become an overnight philanthropist. The more Catherine struggles to resist his devilish charm, the more tempted she is to celebrate the life she saved -- by agreeing to share the rest of it.
