This is such a beautiful story, so very heart warming and moving and what a setting New York at Christmas time in the middle of a blizzard when the Manhattan Mercy hospital has all workers kept on duty because of the snow storm and this makes tensions run high between former friends trauma Doctor Ella Lockwood and Doctor Zac Davenport who has recently left the navy and returned home from his last tour of duty, both Ella and Zac have changed over the years but that spark is still there.

Ella has tried to steer clear of Zac since his return she does not want to be hurt like she was before, they had been very close growing up and while studying but a few words changed all of that and both got on with their lives. Ella is a great doctor even if she hides her heart and emotions, and one day she still would love to marry and have a family so when they are forced to work together during the storm this leads to a kiss and more and she is worried about Zac in many ways.

Zac suffered through his last posting and left the navy with good health although maybe things are still worrying him but he feels he needs to talk to Ella although after what he has been through marriage and family may not be for him. They had been such good friends once and the pull towards her is strong and in his mind she has been with him always, but there are a few bridges to cross before he can feel that love.

Truly this is a story not to be missed there were tears and smiles as I got to know Ella and Zac and their vulnerabilities that strength and love helped to overcome together, what a journey so much happening at the hospital saving people and themselves and wow what an epilogue it is amazing thank you MS Ruttan you never fail to make me smile. Ella and Zac were so meant for each other and what a great ending to this series.

5/5 stars for a great story
