A CEO who falls in love with a woman he can't have... Kellan Maddox is determined to change his image from a billionaire playboy (which isn't entirely accurate) to a socially responsible executive. His first step is helping rebuild a town devastated by tornados. Naturally, he chose the project in the hopes of turning his friendship with a hometown girl into something more. Old habits die hard. But he sees no reason why he can't mix a little work with pleasure. Dr. Patty Iwasaki chooses to set up practice at the rural Heart Lake Medical Center to dodge both a stalker and the pressures of her big-city family. Everything is going smoothly, until her bestie insists on introducing her to the new billionaire in town. A guy who represents everything she hates. A guy whose very presence seems to yank her stalker out of retirement. Neither is prepared for their instant attraction. Though Patty's better judgment keeps saying no, her heart keeps saying yes. As danger closes in, Kellan fights to protect her and turn her no into a permanent yes. BOOKS IN THE HEART LAKE SERIES Read them all!
