Babies for the Damaged Doctor

by Tessa Sloan

Having a fling with a nurse at my private practice spells P-R-O-F-E-S-S-I-O-N-A-L D-I-S-T-A-S-T-E-R.
But her growing belly is an even bigger problem.
Lesson Avoid hiring post-hookups. My life plan was Stay single, excel in my career as a surgeon. Until Hannah. The icy, gruff demeanor I've held onto has met its match with this sassy, enticing woman. Soon we’re caught up in an off-limits affair that develops into my biggest fear—a real connection. When we agree to fake it as boyfriend and girlfriend for a family event, the charade spirals out of control. Being the first man she brings home to a small southern town where her dad is the pastor is more than I bargained for. The pressure reaches a breaking point when a medical crisis reveals that we’re about to be parents—of twins. I refuse to repeat my parents’ mistakes by becoming a father. Hannah is determined to have the babies and raise them herself. But letting her go is proving to be much harder than I imagined. And when fate throws us a curveball, it’s up to me to decide if I’m going to catch it.

The two main characters tugged at my heart through the entire story. Cardiothoracic surgeon Dominic Romeo Del Vecchio, was raised by nannies and never really knew his parents. He excelled at surgery, but has never been part of a couple and had no plans to be so. Hannah McGrath, an OR nurse, followed her own path, rather than the stay-at-home mom her parents wanted her to be. When they met at a gala, their attraction was intense, but their intimacy interrupted. He tried to find a reason not to hire her, but can they agree to be friends who support each other? Hannah is not a push over and challenges him when needed. When he learns that his father is gravely ill, she offers her support and he needs this; he needs her. When a “glitch” occurs in their friends with benefits situation, can he be there for her or will his earlier feelings of standing on his own keep them apart? A beautiful, emotional story with charming characters and that perfect touch of humor. I received an advance review copy at no cost and without obligation for an honest review. (paytonpuppy)

Surprise

Two career minded people think that they want only their career sweet at a gala and don't know who the other is him, a renowned cartactic surgeon her a cartactic surgical nurse. She has an interview for a job with his practice. They meet and decide to have a quick moment together but are interrupted before too much happens. Then she finds out who he is and leaves. Great characters. Funny, sad, and poinient moments where fears and misconceptions try to rule two lives.

This is an ABSOLUTE must read book that is so good that it literally will grab your attention and not let go until the very end of the book. This book is going to have your heart feeling like it was going to explode because of the romance and fake relationship that turns into something much HOTTER. This has to be one of the best medical romance read that you will LOVE.

Un hombre de 47 años comportándose como un adolescente porque tiene traumas de la infancia que no se ha trabajado y que usa esta situación como excusa para tratar a la protagonista mal y abandonarla cuando más lo necesita.
Definitivamente este libro no es para mi.

Good story

I loved Romeo and Hannah's story, it was sad that Romeo didn't work out his relationship with his parents before his dad died.

This would have worked better if the mmc was younger than 47.
