Synopses

Hard Knocks

Neurologist Helen Chang Frobisher wants to ban ice hockey to prevent concussive brain injury like the kind affecting her father. Professional player Adam Magnus is focused on securing his career and retirement despite his team’s poor record. Publicly they argue over the future of the franchise, while privately they struggle with an attraction neither can ignore.

Clean Breaks

Ob/gyn doctor Sarah Soon has recovered from cancer, but the experience has left her shaken. She is determined not to have Jake Li, her brother’s best friend, around. Newly divorced social worker Jake is warned against seeking anything serious, yet he cannot stay away from Sarah, and she cannot stop wanting him despite her complicated past.

Acute Reactions

Allergist Petra Lale is proud of the solo practice she has built and is committed to making it succeed. Restaurateur Ian Zamora comes to her for help with an allergy to his girlfriend’s cat, and neither expects the intense attraction that follows. When Ian’s girlfriend becomes his ex and Petra no longer needs to treat his allergies, they must decide whether they can make time in their careers to fall in love.
