"A beautiful and tender romance!"
Nurse Elizabeth Campbell's six-year old niece, Hannah, is
desperately ill and needs help only her father can possibly
give. Beth knows she has no choice but to track down Adam
Knight even though she promised her sister, Claire, she
would never contact Hannah's father. Convincing Adam to
help Hannah is no problem. What worries her is Adam's
insistence that he plans to play a much more significant
role in Hannah's life from here on out. Her strong
attraction to Adam's gorgeous looks and charming
personality don't help the situation either, for she feels
the only reason he is interested in a friendship with her
is because she reminds him of Claire. Dr. Adam Knight has dedicated his life to working in third
world countries where good medical services are always in
short supply. His uncle's ill health brings Adam home to
Winton to help out at the surgery and there he meets Beth
quite by chance. Finding out he has a daughter is a huge
shock to his system, but once he gets used to that fact, he
is determined to make it absolutely clear he's here to stay
and be a part of Hannah's life. Now if only he could
convince Beth that he plans to play a much more significant
role in her life too! ADAM'S DAUGHTER, the latest medical romance by Jennifer
Taylor, is a beautiful and very tender romance that makes
for a very entertaining read. Ms. Taylor has created rich
warm characters who pull the reader into the heart of the
story very quickly. The enhancing medical jargon goes a
long way in helping to transport the reader into
the 'clinic' setting for the novel. I certainly felt I was
right there in the surgery with Adam and Beth throughout
the story. Ms. Taylor has lovingly created both main characters, Adam
and Beth, and their thoughts and emotions come across
clearly, making them very easy to like. The secondary
characters, especially Hannah and Ian, added not only depth
but also a lot of colorful flavor to the tale. 'Nursie'
was a wonderful addition to the children's ward and I did
so enjoy the scenes that included her. Jennifer Taylor's ADAM'S DAUGHTER is a romance that
promises a few hours of pleasurable reading on a lazy
afternoon and one that readers of medical romances are sure
to enjoy!
