The Follow-Up (Appalachian Ardor Book 1) by Casey Hail
I have a confession to make. It is a bit embarrassing, so let me preface it with the following: I am cautious. I don’t take risks with people or my job. The last thing I want is to crawl back to California with my tail between my legs and admit that my mom was right. Just the thought of that makes my stomach churn. I have worked too hard to get to this point in my life. I finally have some room to breathe. Nothing is worth risking that.
But then I met Jace…. and my aversion to taking risks bolted out the door. As of today, I am likely the only doctor at my clinic to hook up with a patient… in my exam room, of all places. How’s that for a confession from someone who gives you your flu shot?
No, this is not the start of a bad porno. I’m not making this up. There is more to this story. Seriously, it’s not as bad as it sounds. Doctor-patient hookup sounds so cringy. I’m getting ahead of myself. I’ll take you back to the beginning, and you can see for yourself exactly how I ended up in the predicament I am in…which is currently half-naked but fully satisfied and trying to throw my scrubs back on before anyone walks in on me.
