City surgeon – to country GP! Surgeon Declan O'Malley has just sauntered into Dr Emma Armitage's medical practice and revealed himself as her surgery's new partner! Emma might say she doesn't need him, but she knows the practice does. Gradually Emma's annoyance turns to admiration, and she can't imagine life not working side-by-side with the charismatic and roguish doctor... GP of a small town is not what high-flying Declan imagined as his ideal job, but a motorbike accident has left him unable to continue working as a surgeon. There is one plus-side to Darling Downs, however: working with beautiful – if feisty! – Emma is a very enticing challenge!
