Seattle Grace Hospital might have Dr. McDreamy and Dr. McSteamy, but Sierra Mercy has Dr. McSnarly. Emergency-room-director Dr. Logan Caldwellhas no time for softhearted medical personnel who get emotionally involved with their patients. When an explosion at the Little Nugget Day Care causes severe burns on several children and the death of a little girl, he maintains his no-nonsense facade. Nurse Claire Averya stress-management counselor who runs a Healing the Healers programknows how disasters like this can affect a hospital staff and how she can help. Naturally, Loganthinks thisis a waste of everyones time. He believes that his staff should just suck it up and move on to the next crisis. Of course, Logan and Claire go head-to-head, and it doesnt look as though either one of them is willing to come around to the other ones way of thinking. This dramatic love story will appeal to fans of medical fiction as well as thoseseeking faith-based romances.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2009, American Library Association.)
