I’ve been a student of Astrology for years and while
deciding on a book to write, I thought perhaps, one where opposites attract.
Aries and Libra were the first I chose. Now this was originally written years
ago and I had to do some updating like getting rid of station wagons, giving my
characters cell phones and putting computers into the hospital where I chose to base
the six friends
First in the series is Aries-Libra.
Jenessa is union and Eric is management. She charges
ahead, sword in hand. He likes balance and looking at all sides of a problem.
They must learn to work together to solve the hospital’s problems. This story
had a bit of myself in it when I was part of a committee trying for a union at
the hospital where I worked.
The second in the series is The Taurus Scorpio Connection
Lauren a Taurus says her mother was ahired nanny and her
father the Mellwood bank. She is searching for a home and returns to Eastlake where she went
to college. Alex , A Scorpio has been burned by a rick woman who deserted him
and their son. He has no desire for marriage and fights the attraction. This
story came when reading about a poor little rich girl and got tied up with a
charity donation for Doctors Without Borders.
The third in the series is The Gemini Taurus connection.
Liz the heroine is a Gemini. She is a single mother raising twin sons. Her
husband, a volunteer fireman, died trying to rescue a woman leaving her with
two six week old babies. Jeff, the hero is a Sagittarius. He had a wonderful
marriage and has no desire for another. Widow and widower raise sparks and his
‘hoof in mouth” disease provides some humor. Having Genini and Sagittarian
family members, this was sort of written for them.
The fourth in the series is The Cancer Capricorn
Connection.
Cate is a Cancer and a
single mother. After taking a new position as a nurse manager of the Rehab
facility, she is happy to be with her friends. When she learns Rick, her love
from the past and the father of her daughter, she must learn to forgive the man
who deserted her, the man she never tried to find.
Rick has his own lessons to learn and one is
he still loves Cate. Is this love hopeless?
This story has a bit of myself in it. I’m a Cancer but never experienced
being a single mother.
But I spent time
in a rehab hospital when I had my knees replaced.
The fifth in the series is The Leo Aquarius Connection.
Suzanna returns to
Eastlake
to join her friends as nurse manager of the Pediatric unit. She has a fifteen
year old brother who was in a horrific accident and is undergoing rehab. She
almost decides to leave when she learns Caleb a pediatrician has joined the
staff. In the past, Caleb, a wealthy young man had propositioned her. She
refused. They have a lot of learning to do, especially when Caleb’s parents
push another woman into his path. Part of the inspiration for this book was
watching a romance involving these two signs emerge.
The sixth and final book of the series is the Virgo Pisces
Connection. Megan Pisces has been in every one of the other books. She is the
matchmaker. Valentine’s Day is at hand and she has no one special. A series of
deaths on the Oncology Unit sends her running. During a blizzard like snow
storm, she crashes into Virgo Dave’s life. He is a traveling doctor, never
staying in one place for long. Megan can think of nothing better than living in
her home town. She opens her eyes after the crash and asks if he’s her
Valentine. Other complications fill their relationship and they part knowing
little about each other. This book brought some memories from my early days as
a student nurse.
This whole series is dedicated to the nurses past, present
and future who have touched my life.
