It did take me a little while to get into this story. But once I started there was no stopping me then. The characters took a little to warm onto me, but then again I have never been big on the medical stories. Not that this was a medical story, yet it was still there. (

Typical Shalvis read. Light and fluffy, with a predictable plot. It was fun enough to break up the paranormal romance series I'm reading. This was a lot heavy on the UST, though, and light on the resolving of it. After a while, the misses got really frustrating. And the ending, rather than leave me with a smile on my face, was way too cheesy for my taste. I was cringing when I should've been smiling. (
