If you like to medical suspenses this is for you! Tiffany and Ethan are so cute! Tiffany is the fiery red head that takes no nonsense from anyone! She is a strong independent woman! But man as a smart woman she makes me so frustrated! I really do enjoy her story though, she is a woman who will do anything for her mother. Tiffany puts her heart on the line. Ethan is just a sweet heart! He falls first and hard for sure. He is just a cinnamon roll! I love him! But man, he doesn't give up even when Tiffany treats him horrible at times, he shrugs it off. Ethan is just the perfect book boyfriend. He doesn't rush Tiffany, he let's Tiffany come to him and eventually she does. This is just a fun story that I wasn't expecting! Thank you Dr. Melissa Dymond for this wonderful read!!

LOVED this book! It had ACCURATE medical content for the medical geek in me , romance for the romance lover in me, and suspense for the thriller/suspense lover in me! At times it was hard to put down!!

When I began reading this novel, I was pleasantly surprised to find so much more than a rom-com. Tiffany is training to be a radiologist and her "ice-queen" persona get's challenged by a new radiologist she has to train, Ethan, the very good looking and charming guy that is her opposite. I loved how different this story was, I have worked in radiology for 20 years and have never seen this setting in a plot and it is so accurately written. I loved how the relationship between Ethan and Tiffany developed and exploring her past kept me on my toes. There are two versions of this book, A spicy/open-door version with mild explicit language and sex scenes and A sweet/clean/closed-door version with no language and only kissing. I loved that this was offered because although I don't mind spicy scenes, when I recommend a book I know its not for everyone and it's nice to be able to recommend to someone who is not into spice. I hope there is more to come for Ethan and Tiffany!

Rating this one a 4.25/5.00.

I received a free advanced review copy of the book through NetGalley.

I was really excited for this book, and was so happy when I saw I managed to get an eARC.

This was a great read. I was flying through the chapters, and I kept losing track of time as I was reading. I didn't feel like the book was dragging on, which is great. There were a couple of words that I had to look up, even though I work in the medical field, but I didn't mind that at all. I love learning new things, so this just added to the story for me personally.

This is the first book I've read by this author, but I'm sure it will not be the last.

This is a spoiler free review of course, but what I can say is that I will definitely be recommending it to others.

It's entertaining and binge-worthy. If you have space on your TBR, go ahead and this book on there.

I really enjoyed this romance, I truly felt for the fmc. Her past had always haunted her and eventually she had to deal with it. The mmc was amazing and honestly I was in love with him by the end. I could not put this book down, I felt so many emotions throughout the story. The ending tied up everything for me and that's all I want in a romance, I would recommend.

‘Paging Dr. Hart’ is a medical romance with so much to offer and it delivers and then some.

Ethan is the epic book boyfriend for sooo many reasons. He's not perfect, but he's close. Swoon :)

Tiffany is so afraid, but she begins to trust Ethan little by little. Ethan and Tiffany are so good together. This is a slow burn that opens up in such a beautiful way. The way they both evolve as they get to know each other is breathtaking.

I highly recommend this. I love that there's a spicy version and there's a closed door (clean) version as well, so there's an option for everyone. I love this story with all of my hart.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫ARC Review Clean Version

My favorite thing about this is that the author adapted her book to have an open door/spicy version with some language and a clean/closed door version without language! How nice and inclusive is that, now even more people can enjoy this amazing medical suspense drama.

I really enjoyed the past and present dual timeline in this one. It really enhanced the story and kept me on the edge of my seat. The romance was so cute too between Ethan our MMC and Tiffany our FMC!! Since they are both doctors I have to reference Grey’s Anatomy and Ethan was a total Dr. McDreamy! It’s too bad Rafe wasn’t a doctor too because he would be the Dr. McSteamy in this one!

Enjoyable elements in this book:
☀️ Reverse Grumpy/Sunshine
🥼 Doctors
👩‍❤️‍👨 Enemies to Lovers
💋 Kisses only-clean version
🏥 Workplace Romance
🤝 Forced Proximity
🛏️ One Bed

Thank you to the author Melissa Dymond and NetGalley for the electronic advanced copy of the book.

3.5 ⭐️

I love a good medical romance and was excited to receive approval for this eARC. This book started out really strong, was fun with great banter and chemistry. While I enjoyed the premise of Tiffany’s past coming back and her having to deal with it, some parts seems very unrealistic (the teenagers plots, how Ethan seems to so easily find Tiffany in Vegas, etc). The second half of the book felt like it focused more on the past story line than the developing romance, and the end didn’t wrap up as well as I would have liked. Overall I did enjoy the book and it was a quick read. Thank you NetGalley and publisher for the advanced copy!

This book had everything I needed: a hospital setting reminiscent of Grey’s Anatomy, a mystery to solve, and a Walt Disney World adventure. Tiffany (the FMC) even has a cat! *chefs kiss* It’s not a particularly fast-paced book but that’s because it’s written in both the past and the present as the story unfolds. If you’re into delicious romance books containing that Disney-esque happily ever after (you know, the ones that are slightly over the top and not exactly believable but you love them anyway?) then Paging Dr. Hart is right up your alley! 🫶🏼

I haven't read a full book in English for quite awhile, so I was a bit nervous I wouldn't enjoy it as much, but Melissa's writing is so smooth and beautiful that I sat down and read it all at once.

I fell in love since the first word.

I was able to feel every emotion the characters felt as if I was living it with them, sharing the same room as them. I laughed, I cried, I got nervous and tense, I was in awe of every romantic scene.

Trying not to give many spoilers, I'll say I loved Tiffany and Ethan not only as a couple but mostly at individual characters. I love how they're flawed and imperfect as all of us and that them growing up from it.

I love how we see the past alongside the present, letting us understand Tiffany better and deeply.

I was excited and thrilled through every chapter.

Also, there's a lot of Taylor Swift references and beautiful art works 🥹🥹🥹

It has all the good tropes: enemies to lovers, workplace romance, forced proximity, one bed, mafia, reverse grumpy x sunshine, he falls first & harder tbh, nightmare trope and slow burn ❤️‍🔥

I can't wait to read anything and everything Dr. Melissa writes! We still have so much to see and explore here!

This was a cute, fun read! I loved the slow burn romance and was giggling and kicking my feet the entire time. Ethan is the biggest green flag and his patience and love for Tiffany was so pure. I loved the closure at the end. Also the subtle Taylor Swift hidden lyrics were perfect

PAGING DR. HART (eARC)
Pub date: 17.06.24
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Dr. Melissa Dymond

Suspenful romances are slowly becoming a serious contender of favourite genre, especially when they’re written this well. I spent the entire book trying to figure out the villain and what they were going to do to her. I feel like this book gave me so much satisfaction for when I read regular romances and my own intrusive thoughts kick in, it was so good to be actually waiting for something bad to happen.

We follow Dr. Tiffany Hart in her present life as a doctor and her past that she keeps very hidden! The snippets of Tiffany’s past, literally had me holding my breath or my heart in my throat. We learn that she’s a survivor and has every right to keep herself distanced from everyone but slowly she learns how to open her heart again, to Ethan.

Ethan, another perfect book boyfriend that I’ll hold against my husband and be disappointed 😂 it was very much he falls first & harder, man does that do something crazy inside of me! Their banter together plus Tiffany’s angst and reserve make for the best slow burn romance.

Thank you NetGalley & Dr. Melissa Dymond for allowing me to read this advanced readers copy in exchange for my honest review.

Paging Dr Hart is Dr Melissa Dymond’s second novel, and I just had to get my hands on a copy! I love Melissa’s writing so, so much! I knew it when I read her first book, Holiday Star, and this book has cemented her as an auto buy author for me!

The story follows Tiffany (a radiology resident) and Ethan (a new transfer), who meet for the first time under less than ideal circumstances, only to find out she has to spend her time mentoring him.

Tiffany’s difficult and traumatic younger years are shown in flashbacks throughout the book, and the way Melissa connected them to the present day story was absolutely amazing. I felt like I was reading two stories at the same time, and it shows how easily the past can still affect us.

While Tiffany struggles to get close to people and wants nothing to do with Ethan at first, it’s not long before he’s winning her over with his words as well as his actions. I loved way they grow together as a couple and the suspense in the story left me on the edge of my seat!

You can buy this book as a sweet closed-door romance, or a spicy open-door version. Both versions are available on Kindle Unlimited so make sure you double-check which version you’d prefer!

Melissa will also be donating 10% of proceeds to cancer research, just like she did with Holiday Star!

This book was a mix of funny, thrilling, lovey and romcom. I enjoyed the back and forth between the past and present, and how the characters developed over time. It was such a sweet story, which had me at the edge of my seat, and kept my turning the pages. The Best surprise was that there may be an actual series with Dr. Hart, and I'm here for all of it!!! I give this book 4 stars!

I absolutely loved this book!

My review:

Overall, this book felt like I was reading a Grey's Anatomy / Netflix romcom / Lifetime Mystery hybrid with an enemies-to-lovers trope, and I’m definitely not mad about it!

The characters Tiffany and Ethan had me cackling while reading with her passive-aggressive comments and his flirty, overly-confident remarks, and I absolutely loved the two of them together. The close proximity arc in Cleveland (especially the balcony scenes) and the Disney World trip was so fluffy-goofy-adorable, I absolutely loved their dynamic and was kicking my feet and giggling with every interaction.

Favorite line: “You’re no ice queen. You’re pure fire.” ✨SWOON✨

The overall suspense and the flashbacks putting together the pieces of her past had me on the edge of my seat the entire read.

But, my absolute favorite element of this book by far was the subtle (and sometimes not so subtle, but it was absolutely perfect) T-Swift lyric references - my inner swiftie was beyond thrilled to engage in this easter egg hunt💛

My only complaint about reading this book was that outside of the dialogue (which was so darn cute) the descriptive writing sometimes felt a little choppy and at times wasn’t the smoothest read. But I do love the fresh story, the characters, and the ending!

This was so difficult to put down. This book explored the notions of the dark past, letting go of the mistakes in the past for a better future.

I just expected it to be another medical romance, but boy, was I so wrong. Ethan and Tiffany hit close to home because of their past and dark secrets. Tiffany is strong and grumpy, but Ethan comes with sunshine, energy, and a fun personality. I loved both of them so much!

The dual timeline explores Tiffany's past and present, and my heart sank every time I read about her past, but my heart fluttered every time Ethan-Greenest-Flag-Clarke entered and helped her. I love romances with suspense and this book had a lot! I love the standout feature of the option to choose between an open-door and closed-door version of the story. As a fan of closed-door narratives, this was a delightful surprise that enhanced my reading experience.
Melissa's writing style effortlessly blends romance with suspense, making it a page-turner that you just can't put down. I'm just waiting for the sequel 🤩
For those who enjoy a good mix of emotional depth, heartwarming moments, and a dash of mystery, this book is a must-read.

This book me thinking it was just a cheesy romance when I began it but it had so much more going on, there was a mystery, betrayal, heartbreak and a tragic story of a girl trying to make the world a bette replace after she he tough life she grew up knowing, I like how relatable the characters are especially her and Ethan. I expected a huge twist with him but I’m actually glad he was strong for her. I am not sure how I feel about the secret revealed in the end where it leaves you wondering who dear daddy is but I look forward to finding out who this man is that would burn down the world to find his daughter.

Loved it! I didn't know what to expect while reading this book but I was so surprised (in a good way!) with the plot!
In a way it almost turned into a romantic suspense!
There were so many plot twists and I was hooked from the start.
The book switches between Tiffany's past and present.
The characters were so likable, and with learning about Tiffany's past you really end up feeling for her. And Ethan Clark was everything! He was everything Tiffany needed and more. He showed her he would always be there for her and was so protective. He was so refreshing after learning about Tiffany's past too.

This book comes in a sweet and spicy version.

I really enjoyed it!
Loved all the tropes, I think it was balanced well.
Felt abit rushed at the end with a few loose ends but that’s got me hooked! Can’t wait to read more from this author and this series.

Ethan is such a sweet Bookboyfriend ❤️ and really like Tiffany is the main FMC. Really likeable characters overall.

Dr. Tiffany Hart is known as the Ice Queen at the hospital but when she meets Dr. Ethan Clark, she is thrown off balance. Whilst he might seem arrogant and annoying, Tiffany finds him attractive, not only because he is incredibly handsome but he goes out of his way with her. Ethan has come from a long line of famous doctors but he wants to forge his own path. When he meets Tiffany, the attraction is instantaneous. When Ethan and Tiffany return to his home hospital and then to a medical conference at Disney World, they’re forced to share close quarters. Yet, Tiffany’s past is catching up with her and threatens not only their romance but possibly her safety.
This is a book that is far deeper than the cover presents. The mystery behind the anonymous text messages gave an uneasy feeling to this story. Whilst the romance between Ethan and Tiffany gradually blooms, the tension around Tiff’s past took this story to another level. I was captivated from the start. I loved reading the story told with Tiffany in her past, and her present day. Each of the secondary characters were fascinating including Mr Chen and her mother. This is definitely an author that I will be looking out for.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book from NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
