She doesn't intend to fall in love with him, but scintillating dates and mind-blowing physical chemistry have a way of winning a girl over. enter the ex... Just as things are heating up with Alex, Gwen meets her newest patient -- a precocious preschooler whose chaotic soap opera-actress of a mother, Harmony, sounds an awful lot like one of Alex's crazy ex-girlfriends. Mostly because she is one of Alex's crazy ex-girlfriends. Unfortunately for Gwen, Harmony has a secret that plunges them all into a real-life daytime drama, complete with sex, lies, and Vegas elopements. With Harmony determined to reunite with Alex and Gwen's ex-fiancé begging for a second chance, only one thing is certain: New loves and old flames are an explosive combination. From Booklist Child psychologist Gwen has met the perfect man. Alex is gorgeous, sensitive, and wealthy. He is so perfect that Gwen is expecting a catch. Enter her new patient, five-year-old Leo, who turns out to be Alex's son with his glamorous actress ex-girlfriend, Harmony. Gwen is devastated. After all, when her fiance dumped her for his ex, she vowed never to trust a man with an ex around. In this case, her fears are well founded--Alex moves in with Harmony in an attempt to provide Leo with the stable home he never had himself. To further complicate matters, when Gwen starts dating a police office, she finds he's one of Harmony's exes, too.

I should have known this day was coming. UCLA is a big campus, but the medical plaza is a small world. It was not good. We gaped at each other, both of us mute and rooted to the sun-bleached concrete. His gaze slid away from mine, so I focused on the small blue name tag pinned to his white coat: DR. D. SCHELL.
