Books like You, Me and a Family by Sue MacKay

Dr. Alexandra Prendergast is back at Nelson Harbor Hospital, using her work to distract herself from the pain of losing the baby she always longed for. Her daily routine is interrupted when she meets Mario Forelli, a single dad who is raising his little girl, Sophia, while also juggling his demanding medical career. Their professional partnership, filled with mutual respect, slowly turns into a deeper connection, as Alex sees glimpses of warmth beneath Mario’s formidable exterior. Between the challenges of their professions and the personal longing for family, the trio begins to chase the possibility that a new, unconventional family could emerge for all of them. The novel explores the complexities of modern relationships, the emotional realities of single parenthood and the subtle ways that companionship can offer healing and hope. Set within a medical setting, it delves into the personal sacrifices of physicians and the powerful bonds that form when hearts open to one another.
