Tender, sweet story about starting over Chelsea leaves her London life behind and starts a one-year contract as a nurse with Outback Aeromedical in the middle of Australia. Instantly, sparks fly between her and Aaron, one of the doctors she's working with. Aaron is a local and has survived too many people leaving after deciding they're not cut out for the remote Outback, so he's hesitant to start anything with Chelsea until she figures out if she's staying past her first year. Chelsea has been betrayed and left feeling like she's not enough for the men in her life, so she is likewise cautious, not willing to risk another heartbreak. I loved how despite their own personal convictions these two simply couldn't deny not only their fierce chemistry but also just how well they work together, both professionally and personally. That their romance proceeded faster than anyone expected was no surprise, given how delightfully in sync they were. When you know, you know, and when it's inevitable, it's inevitable. There's just enough of a conflict at the end to answer all the outstanding questions once and for all. Their HEA was seen by everyone they worked with long before Chelsea and Aaron could admit it to themselves and each other. It's a wonderfully romantic story, and I highly recommend it. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
