Other books and ratings have passed the two decade later re-read test. Unfortunately, the immaturity of the characters and the destructive nature of the relationship in this book did not permit it to keep its original rating. Maybe I should stop re-reading....

UGH!!! TSTL and terrible character. 0/10. I couldn't get past her curling her lip up when on her 2nd rounds and thinking he was doing all the prozzies just because he took his jacket off.
I was expecting a bit more from her as she worked hard to be a doctor only to act like a dum-dum the minute she met him.
DNF.

I read this book back in the 1980’s. I can see, with the 2020 lens, the monumental problems with the text but it is also where a lot of my buttons got installed.
-a competent woman in a man’s profession
- insta love - I mean it only takes a week
- big secrets that no one can ever know
- men who can’t with feelings do they punch their brother in the face and their mom has to threaten them with her riding crop
- a woman on the run from a dangerous ex
- a drunk encounter that one party has no memory of.
- surprise twins
You cannot read this book without remember it was published in 1984. The works was not the same place.

Hmmm, in my quest for historical Western romances, I grabbed this book as I've read some contemporary romances from Ms. Miller and liked them. However, this one wasn't for me.
Banner and Adam, the heroine and hero, are both doctors, but more the arrogant, abrasive types. So they fight - a lot. The story didn't feel that realistic to me either.

Pretty sure this book is what made me stop reading romance novels, dismissing them as way too formulaic.
Or maybe my mother had a taste for romance novels that followed similar motifs and I simply had the misfortune of reading them.
