About the author

I was born and raised in Dunedin, New Zealand, but had my first year of school in London, UK and the second in Washington DC. I became a primary school teacher and began writing when I was living in Glasgow, Scotland for two years and teachers were all on strike. My first novel was a medical thriller with a good dash of romance thrown in.
I have now written well over a hundred romance novels with more than a dash of medicine thrown in. I love weaving the emotional journey of a love story through the background drama the medical world can provide. I also love the rabbit holes I can go down in the name of research.
Above all, I love romance. And a happy ending!

[Sati Marie Frost · Rating 2 out of 5]

George is a helicopter paramedic - the best of the best. Years ago, she was in love with Max, but when he got a too-good-to-refuse job offer in Glasgow, she felt like he was putting his career before hers, and refused to go with him. Now he's back, and they have a second chance at love.

I often like Alison Roberts, but this one fell flat for me - the most memorable thing about it was the cover. I wasn't overly keen on either hero or heroine - they both seemed a bit selfish to me - and didn't feel the chemistry between them. I also disliked the fact that one of the medics dies in the book - I always expect patient deaths, but not staff - and the fact that George's initial assumption was that his death was of his own doing - that just rubbed me wrong.

I did enjoy the description of George's house and garden, and the scene where Max visits here there - IMO it was the most entertaining part of the book.

It wasn't a dire book, and the medical stuff kept me interested, but it felt cold and depressing somehow. Maybe because I felt no heat between hero and heroine. 2 stars.

Another good read. This had some action, emotions, some difficulties and self-discovery, good side characters, and a good HEA. I wouldn't mind reading this one again but it wouldn't be a go-to. I enjoyed reading it and it kept me pretty interested in seeing what happened next. I liked the tense feeling of the missions and the way each side was felt. The ending was definitely perfect and a good way to finish the book.
