THE DOCTOR'S SYMPTOMS…

Dr. Matt Dennis never considered himself a family man until he was mistakenly assigned to a rural clinic and forced to live in Liz Rawlins's home. The attractive single mom welcomed him into her family, making him feel like he actually belonged. Making him wish for a moment that the domestic fantasy could last indefinitely. But Matt knew all about heartache…and its prevention.

THE SINGLE MOM'S REMEDY

Underneath Matt's icy reserve, sensitive Liz glimpsed a bighearted man. Like a moth drawn to a flame, she'd fallen completely in love with him. And Liz knew that a dose of her warm lovin' was just what the doctor needed….

Review

Practicing in a small town in Virginia's Appalachian Mountains is not Doctor Matt Dennis's idea of a career enhancing move. But until he can get transferred back to Charlottesville, he's stuck in Iron Springs. Matt is determined to survive his experience because he knows it's only a matter of weeks before he'll be back where he belongs. In the meantime, he'll just have to put up with the nosy townspeople and his office manager, Liz Rawlins. Liz would never have rented her rooms if she'd known Matt would be her tenant. But she needs the money for her children's' college funds and she reluctantly lets him in. Her kids take an instant liking to the big city doctor but Liz is far more cautious. Matt reserves his smiles and friendship for the children and turns his back on her- and all other adults, for that matter. She has enough problems without letting Matt complicate her life. Matt and Liz have both been hurt by life and they're reluctant to trust again. Especially when Liz is determined to stay in Iron Springs and Matt can't wait to get out. But love has a way of overcoming the most impossible situations. Leigh Greenwood has woven a deliciously romantic story in Just What the Doctor Ordered. Readers will love the secondary characters as much as they love Matt and Liz. This is a romance to warm your soul on a cold winter's night. A love story from Leigh Greenwood is Just What the Doctor Ordered! Don't miss this heartwarming tale! Leigh Greenwood is one of the most gifted storytellers of the decade! If you've loved Leigh Greenwood's historical romances, you won't want to miss the wonderful contemporary love stories from this multi-talented author!

This is the first book that is set in Iron Springs. I found myself wishing this place was real so I could go and visit it! You have Matt who is a new doctor struggling with being placed in a small town when he was counting on a big city. And Liz, divorced from her husband, with two children, going home to Iron Springs to work in the clinic in addition to renting out rooms in her house to pay for her children's college fund. These two characters fight the attraction the whole way. Matt develops his bedside manner and caring for his patients, and Liz learns to trust her ex-husband, Matt, and herself. You can't help but love the town's inhabitants, who are more than willing to see the "hunkie" doctor and Liz find love. You'll love the wild Salome who works at the clinic and gives this book a dose of humor and color! Once you read this book you'll want to buy the second book, "Married By High Noon." Leigh Greenwood has a wonderful way with children characters, making you ador them! I enjoyed Iron Springs and can't wait for any future additions...
