The Practising and Pregnant series features seven Harlequin Medical Romances about female healthcare workers who end up pregnant while juggling busy medical careers. Published between 1994 and 2004, the books include pregnant surgeons, registrars, GPs, and police surgeons. The dual pressures of professional life and impending motherhood drive the personal stakes in each story.
The series spans a decade and shows Carol Marinelli working through different versions of the same premise. Each book pairs the pregnant heroine with a male colleague or love interest who becomes part of her life as she prepares for motherhood. Medical settings range from hospital wards to police departments, giving each entry its own flavor.
