Wyatt My name is Wyatt Blake. I'm a cardiothoracic surgeon in Phoenix. When I was 17, I had a heart transplant that saved my life. That's not something I tell just anyone, because I hate being defined by the illness that ruled the first half of my life. The average life expectancy for a transplant patient is 11 years. I'm 34, and in case math isn't your thing, that puts me about six years past my expiration date when I spend a weekend at my buddy Jason's wedding in Miami and meet the sexiest bridesmaid in the history of sexy bridesmaids. Dee Giordino. She's sweet, kind, loving and drop-dead gorgeous. I love every minute I spend with her. We had so much fun together at the wedding, and when I invited her back to my room after, we had the best night I've ever had with anyone. And now I can't stop thinking about her or texting her or wishing our one-night stand could somehow be more, even though "more" isn't in my vocabulary. When Jason tells me there's an opening in my specialty at his hospital, I come running back to Miami to interview for the job. And to see Dee again, even though I know that's completely unfair to her. In light of my situation, I've become the king of the one-night stand. It wouldn't be fair to drag someone else into my reality when my future is so uncertain. But Dee, she's different from the beginning, and maybe, just maybe, I might have to break all my rules for her... Fair or not.

Nico My reputation with women stinks. I'll admit I haven't always treated them with the respect they deserve. That's not to say I'm a bad guy or anything. What my sisters and cousin would call toxic, I prefer to think of as selfish. But I'm ready to change everything if it means I'll have a chance with the lovely, sweet, wounded Sofia Diaz-and her adorable son Mateo. They've been through a lot with her ex-and she's still dealing with him far more often than I'd like-but I'm prepared to be there for both of them, to do whatever it takes to make them happy. If only she'll stop listening to my family members who would warn her off me and give me a chance to show her how it can be between us. Sofia Nico Giordino is the sexiest man on the plant, but from what his sisters and cousin tell me, I need to keep my distance. I've already had one serious relationship end in the most painful way possible. I don't need to open myself to more heartache by letting a player into my life-and my son's. Mateo is all that matters to me, and as he recovers from brain surgery to remove a cancerous tumor, I've got my hands full working at Nico's family's restaurant and taking care of my son while trying to finalize my divorce. I've got no time for romance or foolishness with a man who makes my heart beat fast. I want him more than I've ever wanted anything, even if I know I probably shouldn't... Come back to Miami for another sexy installment in the Miami Nights Series and catch up with the beloved Giordino family!
