Hazel Thornton has one great ambition: to help the sick and wounded as a nurse. But that dream can never become a reality. After a devastating childhood trauma, she has spent her life battling fits of panic that make it impossible to finish her studies. Everything changes, however, when a trip to Spain takes a perilous turn that derails her plans to visit her father for Christmas and immediately plunges her into the dangers of a brutal war.
With single-minded focus, she springs into action to help her fellow travelers. To ensure their continued care, she begins work at a Spanish hospital alongside Dr. Jim Jackson, a man whose only emotion seems to be wariness of his new assistant. Armed with gifts of support from each of her dearest friends, a group that dubs themselves the Blue Orchid Society, Hazel embarks on a journey of hope and healing to battle the demons of her past with the help of the doctor who has captured her heart.PURCHASE LINKS: Goodreads | Amazon | Barnes & Noble | BookBub
EXCERPT
Miss Thornton genuinely cared. She was compassionate and felt deeply for her patients. Jim had been like that once. He’d felt the desire to heal, to relieve pain, to alleviate suffering. But that was before. After his brother’s death, medicine had become Jim’s religion. He was consumed with a sense of urgency. He’d joined the Red Cross, following wars and disasters, foolishly believing each patient he cured would ease the pain in his heart, the guilt for the one he couldn’t save.

I like the cover, synopsis and excerpt, Healing Hazel sounds like a wonderful story and I am looking forward to reading the previous stories from the series as well. Thank you for sharing the author’s info and book details
This sounds like a great book.
I like that she wants to be a nurse. The blurb sounds good.
Both Hazel and Jim are “battling demons” and regrets from their individual pasts, and I wonder who heals first.
Sounds like a great read.
