Dear Reader,

Have you ever felt uncertain about what the future holds? I think most of us have at some time or other. Sometimes those fears can consume us...paralyze us. That’s the spot surgeon Sasha James finds herself in. She has finally put a failed relationship behind her and now has her future all mapped out. But you know how that goes, right? Trouble arrives, in the form of life events and, more importantly, a man she’ll have to work closely with for the next several weeks. A man who makes her insides go all wonky.

Thank you for joining Sasha and Nate as they struggle to free themselves from their pasts once and for all. And maybe, just maybe, this special couple will find a little something extra along the way. I hope you enjoy reading their story as much as I loved writing it. These two characters stayed with me long after I typed “The End.”

I have to say working with Julie Danvers, Annie O’Neil and Charlotte Hawkes on The Island Clinic continuity was a dream come true. I can’t wait for you to read their stories and get a taste of paradise!

Much love,

Tina Beckett
