THE DOCTOR ORDERS CHRISTMAS
(Christmas Town, Book 4)
Christmas Town doctor Kurt Christmas has loved high school guidance counselor Savannah Livingston his entire life. While he’s had plenty of opportunity to meet beautiful and accomplished women, playboy bachelor Kurt hasn’t become seriously interested in any of them. He still pines for the stunning redheaded rebel with emerald-green eyes, who took his breath away at sixteen. When Kurt and Savannah reconnect in Tennessee at Savannah’s sister’s wedding, that old flame reignites and Kurt finds himself hoping for a brand new start. Yet Savannah’s current circumstances in Miami threaten to hold her at bay. If Kurt could write a prescription for anything, it would be to win Savannah’s heart. But will love be enough to conquer the secrets that stand between them?

“I don’t want that truth anymore.”
“Don’t you…?” His arms slid around her, and Savannah’s breath hitched. Kurt was better looking now than he ever was. He stood just over six feet tall with a solid buff frame, and dark blond hair offsetting his rugged features. “Carter tells me that you and James are no longer together.”
“That’s my business,” she said unconvincingly. “Not yours.”
“I could make it mine, if you’d let me…”
