Description - The Self-Preservation Society by Kate Harrison

As a little girl, self-confessed scaredycat Jo Morgan stockpiled baked beans in case of nuclear holocaust; now she works in accident prevention, trying to protect the rest of us from conker injuries. Fortunately her boyfriend shares her outlook on life; spontaneity is not in their vocabulary.

But surviving a hit and run accident makes Jo realise that a bit of living dangerously is just what she needs. But un-learning a lifetime of fear won't be easy. That is, until she meets Roger "frisky" Freeman Van Belle, his mysterious grandson and a rather hands-on doctor. Jo has a choice: fight or flight? She can carry on living half a life, or should she leave behind the people she loves. It's the scariest decision she'll ever have to make...
