Nightingale: Great Nurses in Romance
Let us raise our glasses to the nurses. Sore of feet and back. Of gore and the body. With us when we are most alone. Tender or sharp.
Thank you.
There are far too few nurses in romance. These heroines and heroes need more love outside of fetish costumes, soap operas, and medical romances.
Here are some my favorite nurses getting the lovin' they deserve.
1. Outlander by Diana Gabaldon. Claire Randall, Combat Nurse.
2. After Hours by Cara McKenna. Erin Coffey of Larkhaven Psychiatric Hospital.
3.. A Needful Heart by J.M. Madden. Gina Carruthers, General Practice Nurse.
4. Never a Gentleman by by Eilleen Dreyer, Miss Grace Fairchild
5. Own the Wind by Kristen Ashley.Tabitha Allen, Nurse.
6. Virgin River by Robyn Carr. Melinda Monroe, Nurse Midwife.
7. Yours Until Dawn by Teresa Medeiros. Nurse Samantha Wickersham.
8. Unbridled by Cheryl Brooks. Miranda Jackson, ER Nurse
9. Shattered Rainbows by Mary Jo Putney. Catherine Melbourne, Combat Nurse
10. Coming Home for Christmas. by Carla Kelly. Nurse Laura Ortiz.
I must admit I have never ventured into the realm of the Medical Romance but I am always game. Send me your favorite reads in this sub genre!
