Mardie and the City Surgeon (Banksia Bay Book 4)

The last person Mardie Rainey expects to see on her doorstep is her childhood sweetheart, Blake Maddock. Fifteen years ago, Blake Maddock had walked away, leaving her teenage heart sore and broken. But now—with a thunderstorm raging overhead—she can't turn him away, nor the injured border collie in his arms….. Blake Maddock spent his life running from one tragic mistake… Now the frightened boy has become a formidable man—and he's coming back for the woman he has never forgotten.
