Publisher's Summary

After nearly a decade as a professional drummer, Diana Petrell leaves her rock-star life behind to continue her residency in emergency medicine. She's determined not to let anything stop her - not even falling in love with her aloof mentor, Dr. Emily Barnes.  

Emily has only ever focused on her career as a senior attending in the emergency department, and she isn't happy about having to babysit a resident with a 10-year gap in her resume, no matter how intriguing she is.  

But every time they work together, it's not just their patients' heartbeat that gets a little irregular. Soon, the once-clear lines between work and personal life begin to blur.  

When Diana's unorthodox secret past is revealed, putting her job in jeopardy, Emily has to choose between her career and her relationship.  

Contains mature themes.

I’ve listened to it multiple times...

One of the best LGBT books i’ve read/listened to.

Strong characters and character development. Really good narration, one of the best voice i’ve heard, very smooth and easy to listen to.

Storyline is good, believable and very enjoyable.

Other recommendations:
- perfect rhythm
- who’d have thought
- the neighbor

A nice listen

The story is slow to get going and I did not warm to Emily at first. But but the third chapter I started to love the book. I must admit I skipped over the first two chapters as I did not get the characters. But once I got into it I had to go back to the beginning to pick up on the bits I had missed. A lovely book to listen to.
