Contusion

Facing my own mortality, I take a stranger to bed so I can feel alive. I’m in a foreign country and will never see him again, so what’s the harm? The only thing worse than cancer at twenty-four is having to keep it a secret. Worse still is trading knuckle wraps for head scarfs and mouth guards for IV drips. Like I sought the best coach, my search for the best cancer researchers lands me in Kansas City, far from home and alone. But when I take the handsome and funny Rory Dennis home, I learn there is more between us than an insatiable physical attraction. I want to see him again, but can I keep my illness a secret from yet another person? *This steamy, sports, and medical romance is a complete standalone novel. All novels in the Heartland Metro Hospital series can be read in any order.
