Comfort & Joy - Loving the Holidays, #5

His daughter's medical emergency will lead to love. When his teenage daughter winds up in the Emergency Room, Ed is worried sick, but not too worried to notice how beautiful the E. R. doctor is.  He's never believed in love at first sight, but even after he butts heads with the stubborn doctor, he can't get her out of his mind. Joy is content with her single life, but there's something about her patient's father that makes her long for more.
 When her friend schemes to get her out on a date with Ed, she realizes that despite their apparent differences, she and the grumpy contractor have a lot in common. But when another challenge arises with Ed's daughter over the holidays, their differences of opinion threaten to ruin their Christmas and end the relationship forever. "Comfort & Joy" is part of the "Loving the Holidays" series, contemporary romantic comedies featuring couples in their forties and fifties.
Expect strong men, independent women who know their own minds, meddling friends and families intent on matchmaking, and lots of midlife steam. Each book in the series is a standalone with no cheating and a sweet happily ever after.
