This week on Sold! Harlequin Medicals Editorial Assistant Tilda McDonald reveals her secret crush on Lost’s Dr. Jack Shephard, and challenges everyone not to fall for this dreamy doctor!
My secret crush – no question about it! – is Dr. Jack Shephard from Lost. He’s not just a smoking hot spinal surgeon, he’s an alpha hero to die for and a natural leader, as he shows when he takes charge of a crash-landed group of islanders.
Who doesn’t love a hero who is calm under pressure, keeping everyone going while wielding formidable medical skills to boot? He even operates on his own appendix at one point! Jack’s in the middle of every emergency and saves the world one person at a time, all the while battling his demons from his dark past.
That Dr. Shephard isn’t fazed by even the most (okay, sometimes ludicrous) disasters is crush-worthy enough, even before you take into account his agonizingly will-they-won’t-they relationship with Kate! I spent SIX seasons on the edge of my seat just because I wanted to see the good guy win over the rebel. Now that’s chemistry.
I challenge you not to be won over by this ultimate hot doc – did I mention that being on a tropical island gives Jack the excuse he needs to take his shirt off in just about every episode…?
Thanks, Tilda! We certainly wouldn’t mind be stuck on a tropical island with Jack!

I spent the entire shutdown working. Had no time to wind down. I didn’t see my son much when school shutdown. My one co worker was told to stay home for 3 weeks so I picked up her hours. This year has been really crappy.
Ugh, Janell. Here’s hoping the rest of your summer is better.
Thanks for the info, Carol! Everyone is different in how they deal with the shutdown! I stay at home all the time since I don’t work so I haven’t been too effected but my shopping and errands sure have been effected!
Valri, I’ve been doing most of my shopping online. My local Target is still low on some items – mostly cleaning supplies. Grocery store is pretty much back to normal. Most of the dining in our town is outdoor. I can’t imagine have school-age kids!
Wow–getting your creative process on track must have been daunting–especially with “extra-large dog” glad to have you home. You don’t like coffee–I love coffee and have enjoyed my fortifying 2 cups in the morning even more than usual! How as COVID affected your story lines and characterizations? Best Wishes for all releases!
Interesting question, Virginia. You’ll have to tell me if the tone of my “COVID” books changed any! LOL
Life has changed so much! My dad passed Feb 2. The assisted living facility my folks were at went into hardcore lockdown the beginning of March. Mom couldn’t leave her apartment for 4 months! She was on the third floor, Will be 89 in two months & doesn’t use the phone. My husband and I remodeled the lower level completely and moved her in with us July 1. What a life change and difficult transition for the 3 of us! But we’re working thru it!
