Night Tide

Lillian Lee has no faith in love at first sight, but she knows hostility well, especially where Ivy Holden is concerned. The two have been bitter rivals for years. Since they finished veterinary school five years ago, Lillian has not had to face her. Her life has settled into a comfortable routine of close friends, work she enjoys, her pets, and above all a steady, secure existence. It is not the path she once imagined, but she is content with it.

Seal Cove, Maine, was never on Ivy's list of places to live. A health problem leaves her no choice but to move closer to her relatives, and a position at Seal Cove Veterinary Clinic offers her a flexible schedule, a short trip to her family's summer house, and veterinary work she loves. The one drawback is that Lillian works there too.

Suddenly they are sharing the same space again. They must learn to cooperate while feelings they would rather ignore threaten to overwhelm them both.
