Books like With a little help by Valerie Parv
Raised in a family of physicians, chef Emma Jarrett has no interest in the long hours, large egos, or constant on-call that come with a medical spouse. But when she needs his help...and he needs hers, can she really afford to turn him down? Emma's mother has been matching her dates since she was a teenager, and while Nathan Hale is someone she shares a bit of history with, it's hard enough fighting temptation the first time. Does she really want a second dose of him? And when the unexpected happens, can she truly afford to reject the perfect man she's been searching for? This is a story of unexpected love, where Emma's desire for stability and safety is tested, and the unexpected is just what the doctor ordered.
