The Amazing Doctors of Oak Bluff Series by Miranda Liasson

She invented Mr. Right…just in time for the holidays. Every tangled web starts with one tiny white lie. The kind you spin when you’re desperate. One day I, Mia D’Angelo, third-year pediatric resident, was telling my mom that I’d finally met the perfect guy. Gushing about how amazing he was. And how happy I was. It was all true. Until my "perfect guy" turned out to be my co-worker and my only competitor for a spot in the best practice in town…and then suddenly I was dumped…again... moreShe invented Mr. Right…just in time for the holidays. Every tangled web starts with one tiny white lie. The kind you spin when you’re desperate. One day I, Mia D’Angelo, third-year pediatric resident, was telling my mom that I’d finally met the perfect guy. Gushing about how amazing he was. And how happy I was. It was all true. Until my "perfect guy" turned out to be my co-worker and my only competitor for a spot in the best practice in town…and then suddenly I was dumped…again. But I kept going with the stories, to get her through a very tough time. My mom’s health crisis ended, and just when I thought things had settled down, my family wanted to meet my wonderful boyfriend for Christmas. So I asked (okay, begged) just about every male I knew under forty, except for Dr. Braxton Hughes. Don’t get me wrong. I could always count on him in a pinch. At work, that is. Brax is an amazing pediatrician, but he would never fit the bill as a boyfriend. Maybe in looks. And charm. And his big heart. The problem is that he’s the biggest commitment-phobe this side of the Mississippi. He’s the kind of guy I would definitely never take home for Christmas. There’d be no kissin’ under the mistletoe, no canoodling under the tree—because my heart could not survive falling for him again. My car is packed and I’m down to no one, when magically, there he is, duffle in hand, melt-me smile on his face. Oh, joy. Keeping it professional is going to be a whole lot harder than I thought. Especially when he charms my parents, my whole family, and even my dog. And Dr. Wrong…well, he’s suddenly looking awfully right. less

How do you know who is the right one for you? Dr. Samantha Bashar has made a terrible mistake—she let her rocky professional relationship with Dr. Caleb D’Angelo become personal – and accidentally ruined his chances to win back his first true love. Coming from a proud line of matchmakers, she can’t let that happen, no matter how much she dislikes him. Or the fact that she doesn’t believe in true love for herself. Plus, Caleb is her best friend’s brother. And they’re in the same wedding at the end of the summer – oh, yay. Dr. Caleb D’Angelo isn’t trying to make enemies…call him a romantic, but he’s just trying to take his chance to see if The One Who Got Away is the right one for him. While avoiding the woman who is T for Trouble at every turn—even though she “feels bad” and is determined to “help him” no matter what he says. Except the more Samantha helps Caleb, the more his sworn enemy turns into something completely unexpected—she’s funny and kind and very kissable—and Caleb must decide if the One for him isn’t from his past at all—but is the person who’s been right in front of him all along. less

Two wounded souls weren't looking for love. .. but one tiny baby had other plans. When Dr. Ani Green drags herself onto the plane after her wedding-that never-was, she’s a self-described mess who promptly barfs into Adam Lowenstein’s lunch bag—not exactly a meet-cute. But his sweet, friendly demeanor has a way of calming her and even making her laugh. (And the fact that he’s a total hunkadoodle doesn’t hurt! )... moreTwo wounded souls weren't looking for love. .. but one tiny baby had other plans.

But his sweet, friendly demeanor has a way of calming her and even making her laugh. (And the fact that he’s a total hunkadoodle doesn’t hurt! ). Somehow, Adam takes her awful do-my-honeymoon-alone trip from unbearable to almost fun. Ani resolves never to get involved with another man until she figures out why she keeps choosing the wrong guys. But desperation, intense attraction, and a little too much wine in a tropical paradise…oops. What happens in Turks and Caicos stays there. Months later, Ani is struggling to make her hometown dream practice work even though she and her partners couldn’t be more different and despite the fact that her parents moved from retirement in Florida to be closer to her in Wisconsin. (Who actually does that? ). Even worse, Ani finds that Adam is now the head of the ER – and her boss. Except he’s not the sweet, kind, charming guy she knew – he’s a rigid, rule-follower who’s no-nonsense and no fun. Still, she can’t help remembering the kind, passionate guy she met…good thing she’s given up men for all time and has vowed to never act on impulse again. Until a patient surrenders a baby and begs Ani to ensure that she gets a good future. Widower Adam Lowenstein promised his wife he would still go to Turks and Caicos on what would have been their fifth anniversary. Adam would rather eat snails, but a promise was a promise. He’s closed himself off to just about everyone. Love is pain, and he wants no part, even though Ani somehow awakened him from the dead like a whirlwind, and he can’t help but get swept up in her kindness, her joy, and her desire to make the world a better place. He swore he’d never love again, but Ani and one tiny, abandoned baby are the family he just might not be able to live without. Grumpy/Sunshine. Baby-on-Doorstep. Main Characters are Doctors. Romantic! but Close-the-Door. less
