What’s the first rule of the nurse’s club? That’s right: Never date a doctor. Which Sasha Suvorin has no intention of doing anyway since she’s a nurse at Rutherford Hospital by day and working on her master’s degree by night. Who has time for dating, much less dating someone you work with? Bad idea much?
That is until the sexy British Dr. Caleb Thompson starts at her hospital. It also doesn’t help that he’s exactly her type with his dark hair, blue eyes, and rockin’ bod. Or that he’s not your typical arrogant and bossy surgeon. But Sasha isn’t so easily convinced, and she soon discovers Dr. Hottie has a past that puts a stop to whatever she might have been feeling before anything ever starts between them.
Unfortunately, working together means facing temptation. Every. Single. Day. Is Sasha strong enough to resist what might just be the perfect man? And if she gives in, will Cal’s past stay in the past? Sasha may be used to playing it safe, but life has a way of teaching its lessons … one way or another.
MY REVIEW
Fate will bring them together; will lies tear them apart?
Sasha’s days are full working at a cardiac unit at Rutherford Hospital in San Diego and going to school to become a nurse practitioner. She doesn’t have time for dating. Besides no one measures up to the gorgeous “Universe Guy” she saw at an airshow in Los Angeles 10 years ago…until now. Dr. Caleb “Cal” Thompson is the new sexy British cardiothoracic surgeon at work and he is definitely her type, but the first rule of the Nurses’ Club is never date a doctor.
I enjoyed reading about the growing attraction between Sasha and Cal who obviously face some trying times dating in a hospital full of gossips. When jealousy shows its ugly head in one of Sasha’s co-workers, there are consequences that could ruin Sasha and Cal’s careers as well as their budding relationship.
Overall this was a sweet and sexy romance filled with some dramatic moments and a happily-ever-after ending.
Thank you to Ms. Smith for giving me the opportunity to read this book with no expectation of a positive review.
