ER Doctor Portia Bailey’s job is in jeopardy. A patient died under her care, and to her horror, the review board feels it might have been Portia’s fault. She knows it wasn’t, but she can’t reveal the reason she’s so certain. Portia is a medical intuitive. It’s a secret she’s never told anyone. She knows that the information she gets from some miraculous source is accurate, but she also knows she’d be ridiculed and likely lose her job if she tried to explain. Portia loves her job. She adores her mentally challenged sister, Juliet. But a demanding career and Juliet's escalating needs leave little time for romance. Millionaire Nelson Gregory also has a secret. It's what drives him to race cars, ride motorcycles, sky dive. He's constantly flirting with death, and when he's admitted to St. Joe's after a life-threatening crash, it's not death that scares him.Portia assures him his spine is uninjured, and tests later prove she’s right, but how did she know for sure? Portia fascinates him, and he pursues her. Slowly, Portia and Nelson confide in each other, and in the process, they fall in love. But Nelson has never learned to trust or to move beyond fear. Can Portia’s love and an unlikely patient convince him there’s a future for them?
