her Atlas and he’d follow her. No, she couldn’t be imagining her falling for another man. Seven fiancés was plenty on her record.
“Oh.” He chuckled and she found she loved the melodious sound. “You’re one of my mom’s patients.”
“Yes, I am. I would like to see my Dr. Hamilton, please.” She looked past his handsome face and … dang he was tall and nicely-formed as well, to the nurse who was giving her a bored look. “Where is the female Dr. Hamilton?” she begged of the thirty-something lady.
“Let me think,” Dr. Hamilton, the wrong one, said, setting the laptop on the counter. “I think Costa Rica at the moment. As soon as I finished my residency this summer and agreed to take over her practice, she got it in her head to travel the world.” He winked at her.
Ashley recognized the wink was friendly, not flirtatious, but dang if it didn’t give her heart palpitations. What kind of a doctor looked like a movie star and casually winked at his patients? This man was comfortable in his own skin and off the charts appealing to her. It made her even more aware that at the moment she was in not much more than this thin hospital gown and her skin was a horrific mess.
“Now …” Dr. Hamilton gave her another heart-stopping smile and moved in again. She caught a whiff of a manly, musky cologne that messed with her brain waves. “Are you comfortable with me seeing your rash and recommending treatment?”
“No!” she said much too sharply.
He drew back. “No?” His smile disappeared and a furrow appeared between his brows. “I apologize, Miss Casey but my mother is currently out of the country. The receptionist should have informed you of the switch.”
“She didn’t.”
He nodded and rubbed at the back of his neck. “Again, I apologize. But I can also assure you I am a competent dermatologist, graduated with my doctorate and specialty from Yale, and more than qualified to diagnose your rash.”
“I’m sure you’re very competent.” She couldn’t seem to resist looking him over and thinking he indeed seemed more than competent. “But you have to understand that I was expecting a kind, classy lady doctor, your mother,” she gestured to him, “who I’m comfortable seeing me in my tighty whiteys and then you walk in all handsome and smelling good and …” Her voice trailed off as his smile returned. “I just made this awkward,” she finished miserably.
“Not at all.” He was obviously trying not to laugh. “I promise to be professional about seeing you in your ‘tighty whiteys’.”
She pushed the robe down under her legs tighter. “Oh, no you won’t. Because you won’t be seeing them.”
