Unfortunately this book was just not for me. It might have been the wrong book at the wrong time, but I just couldn't get into the story or connect with the characters.

That was a short read. It doesn’t impress me much. It has an instalove trope that is way too cliche for my liking. This story follows the romance between two pre-med students turned doctors over the span of 10 years. It started with mutual pinning and a weekend spent together but things get complicated and they had to take different paths. They reconnected later when they were both succesful and somehow things got even more complicated.

The plot is such a mess at times I can’t help but cringe. There was a lot going on in such a short length, I felt the ending is a bit too dramatic. The characters were passive-aggressive at best. I don’t see the reason why they did what they did, but I had to confess that the kind of the steamy bit of get into my head a little that’s why it earned a star.

Overall, it was pretty much an expected read. There really nothing new to offer as far as romantic fiction goes.

Dripping sexy hero but kind of a jerk(which I tend to hate). It's a typical possessive hero which I'm slowly starting to fakk out of love with but I love romance so it hit all the beats I like

Alex knew as soon as he saw Jenny that she was the only woman he could ever love. She had never fully lived due to being isolated while growing up and he was the only one That would remind her there was so much more to life than work. Embracing love was difficult u til something reminds her life is far too short to love it alone.

I enjoyed this book it was a really quick read story, something to loose your mind in.

Alex has had a crush on Jenny since the first day he saw her in medical school. He finally asks her on a date. They finally decide to go on a date have a great sex filled weekend and then she writes him a "Dear John," letter, and she was gone just like that. She has a successful career at her hospital and fast forward ten years later and guess who the new doctor is at the Hospital where Jenny works??? Yep sure enough Alex....Dr Holy Hotness in the flesh.
This was my first read by this author and I would read more of these types of books just remember its super easy read and easy to guess what the out come of the story is.

Alex and Jenny spend an amazing weekend before finding where will they start their doctor career. And because of fear Jenny disappears from Alex life until 10 years later they become colleagues in the same hospital. Attractions and chemistry are still off the chart hot but Jenny is still afraid until something almost rips Alex of her life. Short hot and steamy interesting story all wrapped in anyone read.
I volunteered to review an ARC of this book for Netgelly

Sparks fly between Alex and Jenny during medical school but she ran. Now they she each other years later and those sparks are still there and Alex doesn’t plan on letting Jenny slip away again. Fast-paced read with interesting characters. Just wish it had been longer. A good read.

A charming romance book that will make you fall in love with the characters. Steamy romance book that will steal your heart. Relatable characters.

The blurb was very catching... but the actual book was boring unfortunately 😫 I’m so sorry... but both the characters were ‘meh’ (with the heroine being even more ‘meh’) and the storyline was a bit rushed and confusing.

They would get into arguments for literally nothing, and then even more random drama would be created for the sake of it.

I really couldn’t feel the chemistry between them - and all in all it was boring 😕

Fun, flirty and totally satisfying. “Dr Holy Hotness” hooked me on the first page and I couldn’t put it down. I loved this smart, funny, and sexy second chance romance. I love having the opportunity to escape with a fantastic story and “Dr Holy Hotness” is just what I needed. A gem of a book. Highly recommend

Before I read the book I checked it on Goodreads and I was surprised by the low rating it had, so I got a little prejudiced. As it turns out, the book wasn't that bad. It needed more pages because I felt like the characters and the story needed some development. Still, I feel like 3.5 stars is a better average rating for the book and while that is my rating, I will round it up to 4 to help the book. The book is a novella so I wasn't expecting a lot of character development to happen. Jenny is very skittish which was a little frustrating. I was expecting things to go smoothly between Jenny and Alex in present time and that didn't happen because of her. A part of the book is dedicated to showing us what happened 10 years ago and the rest of the book is about how Alex won Jenny's heart. I was very happy when I found out that both of them were celibate for the last ten years (even though we know that's unrealistic).

This was my first book by this author.
I enjoyed this book although it was a quick read. There was plenty of chemistry and drama. It was a insta-love story. Quite enjoyable overall.

I really liked the blurb of this book, so I was looking forward to reading this story. I wasn't aware that this is only a novella.

Half of the story is set in the past when Jenny and Alex met at Havard university on the day when they find out where their career paths will take them. Things are starting to get steamy real fast, which felt way too rushed for me. I also found this part of the story very dragging.
In the second part Jenny and Alex met again after 10 years into their career and here the drama starts. I found Jenny very annoying and couldn't understand her decisions which changed daily as well. The drama at the end was absolutely unnecessary and I don't like this method to change the characters decisions.

I couldn't really connect with the characters and wasn't a real fan of both, though Alex was ok most of the time.

The story has a lot of potential but would have worked better as a full novel I think.

There was a lot of heat in this book but not much substance. It wasn’t super realistic and was borderline unbelievable at times. I didn’t really connect with either main character.

I worried this book would be a bit cheesy. I was wrong.
I really enjoyed it and read it in one sitting. I enjoyed the characters and found it well written and enjoyable.

when I read the blurb of this book, I honestly expected to be blown away by this book. I was expecting McDreamy + McSteamy all wrapped up in one...I mean, Hello! I am a Grey's Anatomy fan ok!

I was expecting someone who was going to ruin my heart, make me fall in love with a hotshot Doc. I was expecting a love story of EPIC proportion.

Sure, there were a lotttttt of steamy scenes BUT I may have skimmed through the scenes.
Was it hot? YES!
Was it Sexy? YES!

So you must be thinking why I didn't enjoy this book? Well... This entire book was soooooo rushed.
It was all so 'wham-bam- thank you ma'am'.

There were so many 'creating unnecessary drama' scenes that just pissed me off to be honest.
One, It really didn't help that I could not connect at all with the characters.
second, The revelation behind all that mystery regarding Alex's past made me scoff.
Third, Sure..I'm a Romantic at heart but stupid cheesy one-liners makes me roll my eyes. So, NO.
Fourth, The ending was convenient and underwhelming.

So there! I got a whole lot of Sex without much anything else.

I hate DNF-ing a book because I like to give books a chance to redeem itself but this was just such a waste of time.

3 1/2 Stars

It’s not exactly what I expected. If you are looking for a sexy, quick read, here it is. Hot Russian doctor is in insta-love with a nerdy, introverted doctor. This is more sex driven than story. I guess sometimes that is just what you need.


I voluntarily read an early copy.

I give this book 5 stars. The storyline between Alex and Jenny was well written and a second chance romance. Holy Hotness was right. Jenny pushed him out of her life after medical school. They meet again several years later. Can there love be rekindled? I whole heartedly recommend this book. I voluntarily reviewed this Advanced Readers Copy of this book.
