A Fiancé for the Holidays
A holiday marriage proposal should be the happiest moment of Dr. Zaire Paige’s life. So why is she running? Coming home to her mother’s community clinic in Brooklyn to regroup, Zaire faces some hard truths. Saying yes to Dr. Ainsley Clay, part of a five-generation dynasty of wealthy physicians in San Francisco, would mean turning her back on her own parents’ humble legacy. Now she’s determined to make things right, and really prove herself, instead of always being accused of getting ahead because she’s dating the Clays’ favorite son. This isn’t about pride—it’s about proving her worth.
But Ainsley isn’t giving up so easily. And when he shows up at the clinic, Zaire can’t just shut the door on him—the attraction’s still there. Maybe if she puts him to the test, he’ll run. So she offers a proposal of her own: if he spends a week seeing patients at the clinic, and helps her host the community’s annual Kwanzaa celebration, she’ll reconsider his marriage offer.
Game on. But will Dr. Ainsley Clay, scion of the San Francisco Clays, overplay his hand on Zaire’s home turf? They have the seven days of Kwanzaa to find out.
