Story
Dr. Jordan Williams devotes her life to two things: saving patients in the operating room and pleasuring her latest conquest in the bedroom. Her idea of commitment is spending a few hours together in bed. Single mom Emma Larson is Jordan’s polar opposite. Family and fidelity mean everything to her. After an ugly divorce from her wife, a plastic surgeon, she and her five-year-old daughter move in next door to Jordan. While she finds Jordan undeniably attractive, falling in love with another womanizing surgeon is the last things she needs.

Falling stars are supposed to be a lucky sign, but not for Austen. Her new job as a secretary in an international games company isn't off to a good start. Her first assignment - decorating the Christmas tree in the lobby - results in a trip to the ER after Dee, the company's second-in-command, gets hit by the star-shaped tree topper. Dee blames her instant attraction to Austen on her head wound, not the magic of the falling star. She's determined not to act on it, especially since Austen has no idea that Dee is practically her boss.

Lately the unexpected is the new norm for Seren Winters. She's single, four months pregnant, and trying not to worry about where she'll be living by the end of the year. Still, the last thing she expects when she shows up for her first doctor-prescribed water aerobics class is a hot butch instructor. Even more unexpected is accidentally dunking her.

Written by: Jaime Clevenger
Publisher's Summary
Award-winning author Jae’s newest lesbian novel is a medical romance with a few unexpected turns.
Dr. Hope Finlay loves her job as an emergency room physician, especially since it allows her only brief encounters with her patients. She learned early in life not to get attached to anyone because it never lasts.
Laleh Samadi, a waitress at her aunt’s restaurant, is the exact opposite. She easily connects with people and loves her big, boisterous Persian family, despite their tendency to meddle in her life.
When Laleh needs to be rushed to the ER with heart trouble, Hope saves her life. Afterwards, strange things begin to occur: Why does Laleh suddenly know even the most obscure diseases, while Hope is fluent in Farsi?
Soon, they can no longer deny that there’s a mysterious connection between them - one that becomes stronger with each passing day.
Are they losing their minds...or their hearts?

You can always count on Jae for...
...the unexpected! Also, for humor, for laughter, and sometimes, for tears. Like most of her books Jae smoothly adds layers to her plot. They suck you in even when you don't want to commit; and almost against your wishes you end up entangled with yet another gaggle of characters.
Ever resistant to change and sure I would not enjoy a different narrator, I felt a bit grumpy at first...but she is good too.

Cringey ... but hooks you in till the end
The medical aspect was fascinating and impressively accurate but it was dampened by the non-fiction aspect. the family dynamic was spot on and hit a little too close to home at times. One of the main character voices sounded like she had a constant cold. Not my favorite book by Jae but not that bad either.

What a great surprise!!
Jae did not disappoint! At first I wasn’t sure about this book. But the story had me after the first 5 mins! Again, the narrator absolutely is not my favorite. I’ve bought several of Jae’s books and was willing to move forward. She was a bit better than last time but her inflections are just plain off. Sometimes I couldn’t tell who was speaking. If it weren’t for Jae’s amazing writing, this story would have been a wash for me. Thanks Jae for writing another good one!!!

Not the right narrator
She's not a bad narrator, nothing like the folks who make you turn off the book and return it within 10 minutes of starting it. Her style, however, is far more fitting for children's novels. It was hard to get past this to understand how good the book was, or wasn't. I think it's not up to Jae's usual standards, offhand, though still entertaining and not poorly written.

Least favorite Narrator
I usually love Jae’s novels and she usually picks amazing narrators but this one just does NOT work. This narrator should be reading Childress books not sapphic novels. Her inflections and timing are totally wrong it hurts to listen to. I think this book when read yourself or by a different narrator could be great but it just is so hard to get through as it is now

Ugggg,
The narrator was terrible. I could not get past 4 chapters. The story was weak, and I hated the I'm so deep in the closet aspect of it. I also felt someone other than Jae wrote this book, it seemed so JUVENILE. I'll never purchase a read by Miss Rakocy.

Great book!
I absolutely loved this book. The ending was a little dry for me. It felt like it needed a little bit more. The only reason it didn’t get 5 stars for the performance is because of the way the narrators voice was a little too drawn out on some of Hope’s words. It bugged me for some reason “. Over all I would say a 4.9 over all!

I guess I like a little more realistic. This doesn’t ever happen in real life. The doc falling for waitress is not much of reality either.
