The Family You Make by Jill Shalvis
Jane is a traveling nurse, never stopping to put down roots. But every winter, she returns to Lake Tahoe for ski season, where she floats around the urgent care centers to care for the injured. Levi is the black sheep of his family, more interested in computers than the family sporting goods business. He's just visiting his home in Lake Tahoe, but is forced to stay when he sustains an injury.
The Family You Make sucks you right in from the first chapter, where Levi and Jane get stuck in a gondola lift together. At first, you'll keep flipping pages to see how they'll get themselves out of the terrifying predicament, but then you'll be flipping them to see how their relationship develops. Their journey includes fake dating, meddlesome family, and lots of laughs.
We are luck enough to get not one, but TWO romance storylines and couples to root for in this story. Jane's best friend and fellow medical professional, Charlotte, gets her own HEA as well! This book has some great commentary on what family means, and includes storylines of found family, re-kindling old relationships, and healing from loss.
CW: family abandonment, sexual assault
