I never figured that I’d be someone who fell for a damsel in distress.

I see my share of hurting and wounded people in my job at the island health clinic. Wanting to help and heal is why I went into medicine.

So why is Teresa different?

No idea.

All I know, is that she’s come into my clinic twice now with injuries that can’t possibly have been accidental, no matter what she said at the time.

I want to protect her.

I’ll do whatever it takes.

Even if what she needs most is a marriage of convenience.
