#1 in the desi medical romance series Her lips were inches from mine and her sweet scent filled the air between us, intoxicating me. I slid my hand down her bare arm, reveling in the way her smooth, soft skin made mine tingle. We were alone in the hallway outside the ballroom and all I could think of was pushing her against the wall and crashing my lips on to hers. She had to have felt something, because she stood still in front of me, breathless, her eyes locked on to mine only to break away and wander down to my lips. =============== She was a young woman from a conservative culture trying to adjust to her new life in the West. He thought he had left that culture behind, being born and raised in the US. The tribulations of medical training bought them together. Their stubbornness and prejudice kept them apart. Join them as they travel on a journey of self-discovery and challenge themselves as much as they challenge each other. This is a medical drama and a romance story rolled in to one.
