I Loved The 1st Half Which Focuses On The Relationship. It Could Be Separated Into Two Different Stories, But It Works.

Ellis Smithson, twenty-eight, is an intern at Knight Medical Center in Chicago. In her three short months there, she has worked hard to earn the respect of the attending physicians, residents, and fellow interns. She is honest, hard-working, kind but serious, and treats her patients like family. Dr. Carver takes note of her workaholic tendencies and urges her to go out and live a little – have an evening of drinks, dancing, and a man. Ellis doesn’t intend to follow her doctor’s orders until she crosses paths on her way home with a handsome stranger who urges her join him for dinner. Caught up in the moment, Ellis follows doctor orders and invites Rainier home.

Dr. Rainier Knight, sought-after neurosurgeon and owner of Knight Medical Center’s Chicago branch, went to MIT to study computers but ended up being inspired to follow in his parents’ footsteps and pursue a career in medicine. Chicago is his home base, but he travels across the country to take on complicated cases. He returns home after three months away and comes across a woman that captures his attention. It has been months since he has been with a woman, and he hasn’t wanted a woman so much since – ever. He is hooked on Ellis. Her childlike innocence. Her honesty. How she helped a woman on the street in need. He seduces her, then leaves without a goodbye. He doesn’t do relationships. He is just as surprised as she is when they run into one another hours later in the hospital. He chooses the protect them both from discovery, but handles it poorly and earns her ire.

Rainier and Ellis manage to keep their secret until he finally gets over his instinct to push her away. But when they are discovered, the reality of their situation causes problems, particularly for Ellis. Amidst this, Ellis receives some shocking information about her family history that she needs to investigate, and Dr. Knight just so happens to be in a position to help.

The first and second halves of the book are entirely different. I loved the first half which focuses on the developing relationship. It feels very real. The second half is less realistic. It depends upon the unlikely coincidence that Rainier knew both Ellis’s father and her mother’s family, and both connections are quite unusual. The story becomes less about personal journeys and their love story, and it is instead plot-driven. This would be fine but for the fact that there are gaps in the story that leave the reader wondering how the relationship is progressing with so much unaccounted for time available for the couple to spend together.

Rainier and Ellis’s love story is steam-filled with an undeniable chemistry. Their relationship is taboo in the workplace, but Rainier has a little flexibility as the owner of the hospital. There is a fake engagement component to the story, but it is only incidental and the relationship is not based upon it. The couple earns a short but sweet HEA.

This book is well-written and an easy read. The POV alternates between Ellis and Rainier. The plot is decently developed but most action takes place in the last half of the book. The characters are nicely developed. Rainier and Ellis are both easy to love. This book could easily have been separated and expanded into two separate stories, but it works as is. I rate this book four stars.
