Dear Reader, I'm living a life I couldn't even have dreamed of a few years ago. I'm married to Bobby Polgar now (you know, the famous chess champion who just happens to be the man I love!). And we've got this beautiful house with a view of Puget Sound. Lately something's been worrying Bobby, though. When I asked, he said he was 'protecting his queen' and I got the oddest feeling he wasn't talking about chess but about me. He wouldn't say anything else. Do you remember Get Nailed, the beauty salon in Cedar Cove? I still work there. I'll tell you about my friend Rachel, who's got two men interested in her (count 'em, two). And I'll let you in on what I've heard about Linnette McAfee, who left town when her love life fell apart. (That kind of trouble I know all about.) Come in soon for a manicure and a chat, okay? Teri ( Miller) Polgar

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. (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 not to get involved with anyone 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 her partners couldn't be more different and despite the fact that her parents returned to Wisconsin from Florida to be closer to her. (Who actually does that?) Even worse, Ani finds that Adam is the new head of the ER - and her boss. Except he's not the sweet, 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 forever 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.
