I have become a huge fan of Jessica Scott's romances; they're tender, funny, gut-wrenching, and realistic. This one was especially wrenching; it's due out next week and my review will be up later this week. This quote is funny, tender and sad (sadder in context) and it's one of my favorites. Carponti is in the hospital and under doctor's orders not to engage in physical activities, including sex.

"Can I help you?" The nurse's voice was scratchy over the speaker.
"Yeah, I need a note from the doctor so I can have sex with my wife."
"Vic!" She tried to snatch the handset.
"Um, I'm sorry, sir. Can you repeat that?"
"Sorry, ma'am," Nicole grabbed the button. "Ignore him. He's high. We're sorry, ma'am."
