Customer Reviews

Intensive emotions -- Highly recommended

The promise of an explosive sexual attraction keeps Dr. Portia Bailey trying to maintain her distance from race car driver Nelson Gregory. Despite her aloofness, Nelson pursues her with a passion, indulging her in the most extravagant and unusual gifts she's ever received. Nevertheless, she's not particularly interested in a relationship with a man who indulges in extreme sports, living life in the moment without regard for safety. Portia assumes he's around for the thrills, and when the new wears off, the playboy will off to new fascinations. When Nelson found out that he had a strong chance of inheriting the devastating neurological disease that destroyed his father's life, he made a number of changes in his life. He divorced the woman he loved and distanced himself from his mother rather than allow them to suffer while watching the disease progress. He began pursuing dangerous sports in an effort to live in the moment and ignore the possibilities of the future. But when he learns of Portia's special gift, and the renewed possibilities of the future, Nelson finds himself radically reevaluating his life once again. Author Bobby Hutchinson maintains a light, lively tone in the face of devastating illness and its consequences in INTENSIVE CARING. Striking the perfect balance of irreverence and seriousness, she explores the devastating effects of tragic illness, turning tragedy into a triumph of the human spirit. Secondary character Juliet, who is mentally challenged, also lends wonderful humor and complexity to this marvelous novel. Additionally, Portia's psychic ability to read auras lends a touch of a new age spirit that is both welcome and different from the standard fair of genre romance. Highly recommended.
