The Doctor and the Ice Princess

Book excerpt: “What are you doing here, Susan? Get out of here. We’re not open yet.” Susan had a smug look, where Cassandra wanted to wipe off her face. “Who do you think you are? Ms. High and Mighty?” Susan snickered the words back, her eyes fierce, tapping her foot. “After all, Ice Princess, you of all people never did fit in.” Cassandra, seeing red, fumed. “That’s it!” Without thinking, she slapped Susan, who slapped her back. Both of them, royally pissed, went after each other, screaming, grabbing hair, and kicking. Dr. Miller and his new protégé, Dr. Cody Grant, pulled the women apart, each holding one. Dr. Cody Grant, smiling, stated, “And I thought this town was going to be boring.”
