This book, this book right here is just amazingly well written and told. You can feel the emotions for the characters.....Marley is a Dr for ped's....and cares deeply for her little patients. she has went trough alot in her life and it has made her a very guarded person with others. Dr. Liam Beckett....he is sexy...cocky...a smartass...a flirt....and also a man who knows his way with babies, since he delivers them and all. Marley has had secret feelings for Liam for years, but put it behind her to focus on her career, and dosent really think he could be the forever type. Liam is your basic manwhore....but deep down he has a heart....and I love his wise cracks. The interaction he has with Marley grips you and then has you laughing, I laughed and both cried reading this book. Marley is best friends with Liam's sister Ella, and when Ella talks Marley into trying online dating....things heat up for Marley. But there is one thing that she yearns for the most....and I don't want to give it away.....but it is heartwarming to read her story. I could not put this down once I got started reading it.
Kasidy included side characters in this book that I hope we get their stories as well....Ella, Jac, Lincoln, Forrest, Margo.....I could read each and every book for these people and know I'd never be bored. So I hope we get those stories!

Meh, it was a bit of a drag for me. The story kept on dragging and stretching.

If you were looking for a hot and sexy medical romance then this book is for you. I could not put it down.
Dr. Marley Banks and Dr. Liam Beckett went to medical school together. Marley was all business and worked hard and Liam was your typical cocky playboy. Marley and Liam get paired up together and both are secretly crushing on the other and they finally seem to be getting together until Liam does something to crush Marley. Four years later they are working together and Marley cannot stand Liam. Since she is a neonatologist and Liam is a gynecologist it is in evitable that I have to work together. And boy is the chemistry still there in spite of the anger.
I loved watching the drama unfold and watching both of them realize that things aren't always as they seem. As much as Liam could come off as an ass, I fell for him. You will laugh and cry and fall in love reading this book. Be ready for some shocks and surprises!

April 2, 2016It's Er meets General Hospital, all the drama of a soap opera all the action of a dramatic series. I have to admit there were times I wasn't sure how things were going to turn out but just about everything I had hoped for came true. Well except I wish Becca would get crotch rot . Ella and Lincoln would make me great friends, it's a shame they aren't real. I can't say enough about this story other than, read it! !

Rewind and Communicate . . .
This novel left me conflicted because the story was not endearing and main couple was not something to admire, but then the ending turned it all around. I seriously have more cons than pros but the pros resolve the cons. Sooo in the end I'm left with an it was fine but could have been better kind of feeling.
Working together since med school Dr. Marley Banks and Dr. Liam Beckett by all appearances have a relationship that is dysfunctional at best. With careers that work so closely they should be at least friendly, but according to each other someone ruined what could have been a beautiful relationship. One night and one missed opportunity 4 years ago leads them to make bad decision after decision in effort to forget and hurt the other person. Now Marley seeks to become someone new by finally living and finding a man worth loving. Meanwhile, Liam has to decide if he can let Marley go or fight for them, despite their past and current hurtful relationship.
Overall, the story ended great but the main characters relationship was too flawed. I honestly wished Marley got a real Prince Charming because Liam was such an A$$. No amount of explaining made me see him as a true catch, even in the end I basically had to disassociate him from the character he really was in order to be happy for Marley. Don't get me wrong Marley too was flawed but I felt she at least progressively developed into a better person. Liam just magically went from womanizer to Prince after one explanation, it was a good explanation, but he was still just such a real jerk all those years. Also side characters in this book took up a lot of the scenes, some where great like her BFF Ella, but Lincoln was too odd he seemed gay at first being way too involved, Marley basically had a squad to guard her, except when Liam was there . . . so fail. Oh and for character perspectives perhaps I could have understood Liam better if readers were given more from Liam's POV, he talks in the prologue, Ch. 8 and the epilogue. Though Ch. 8 didn't help his case for me, it just clarified he was being a jerk again, but at least had some reason behind his actions. I suppose in the end I just wasn't all that into the you hurt me so I hurt you and now we are both hurting and confused kind of romance. So if you are looking for a couple of doctors who are too smart and hot for their own good that they miss what's right in front of them instead they build a twisted love-hate relationship, then this book may interest you.

Revived by Kassidy Blake starts the story with Liam Beckett while in residency. He has a crush on Marley Banks who he thinks will never see him in that way. After spending more time together studying, Liam makes the decision to tell Marley how he feels.
Fast forwarding four years later, it seems the confession didn't go so well as the two are no longer friends and have a love-hate relationship without much of an explanation as to what caused it. Liam is now a surgeon and Marley is now a doctor in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. She is especially fond of Madeline who is in an incubator.
Marley discovers that the nurses she works with think she is stuck up since she spends most of her time at the hospital. She decides to change her attitude and be more social and goes out to have drinks with a few of the workers, and changes her style of clothes. She even decides to start online dating. She meets a few new people but decides to be friends. She meets Lincoln, and a friendship begins forming the night they meet.
Marley's best friend, Ella, deletes the dating app from Marley's phone after realizing that Marley still has feelings for her brother, Liam and tries to get the two together.
When an unexpectedly encounter with the last person she ever wanted to see is at the hospital, Marley is unable to function and seeks comfort with Liam. They end up sleeping together and causing more complications in their already complicated relationship.
I can't describe all the twists and turns of this book. I picked this book without knowing anything about it and I am glad I did. I can relate to Marley because she feels she will never find someone. I also loved the message of this book. It all starts with a misunderstanding and most relationships work themselves out with talking and communicating.
I will definitely be reading more by this author!

I loved this story! it was about falling in love at a distance and the journey of finally getting together. this was a HEA with no cliff hanger ending, just a warm fuzzy feeling with closure.
Kasidy Blake did a great job with the characters and I really enjoyed the back and forth dialogue. I was giggling like a school girl in various chapters and was ready to bonk Liam over the head a few times!
I felt Kasidy got a little too Grey's Anatomy in some parts of the story as it centered around doctors but I still couldn't put it down! There were also some transition issues in between the sentimental paragraphs and continuing with the rest story, certain parts felt rushed or rigid.
I swooned over the many (3 ) men in this story as they each had charming characteristics in their own way. Even though, I was able to predict the outcome of the story I still loved every minute of it!

I really loved and enjoyed reading Revived, this is the first book I've read by Kasidy Blake and definitely won't be the last. Once I got into it, I couldn't put it down. There was so much drama unfolding and the two main characters were so stubborn. Revived made me laugh out loud so many times, there was a lot of hilarious moments. I loved Liam's character and hated Forrest however if I was to pick a fave it would be a toss up between Ella and Lincoln, those two are too funny. There def needs to be a story for Jac and Ella you can see the tents ion brewing between the two. Although this book was full of drama and kept me entertained there was some heartfelt moments between the main Marley and her mother and Marley and Madeline. This book def will be on my top faves for 2016 and I def can't wait to see what Kasidy has in store for us next!!

Marley and Liam both Dr's only interact when it involves one of their patients the rest of the time they stay out of each others way. But it wasn't always that way during their residency they became close friends and after a misunderstanding it all changed. The witty banter these two had and the sexual chemistry was smoking Hot. While Marley take a chance on Liam ?

Simple easy read
This was an okay book for me. I am not saying it was bad, it is just that I felt it needed something more. Just some angst between Liam and Marley..and some parts seemed a little to unreal.
