I was so glad I was able to read and fall in love with Tiffany and Ethan enemy to lovers storyline. Their relationship was destined from the start, it was like love at first. It’s the type of love story that you have to keep reading to see how it will unravel.. it’s a very special unravel!

Ethan is all the green flags in the world! 💚💚

I don’t want to give too much away but if you like romance stories but with a solid story line, this is the book for you. It’s not a cheesy love story that you can predict from the cover , it’s the story that will have you keep turning the pages. It has a lot of interesting moments and stories. I love the friendships, motherhood bond, making new friends and new love interests.

Also if you are a cat lover, there is a furry friend you will love to read about. 🥰

I will definitely recommend this book! And I can’t wait to see else Dr. Melissa Dymond writes in the near future!

Behind Her Grey Eyes

Wow this was so good! This is a slow burn rivals to lovers romance told in alternating timelines from Tiffany’s present and childhood.

It did take me a little bit to get into this but once I was in it I couldn’t put it down. It had so much depth to the story and the characters.

It had an underlying mystery/suspense element that kept me hooked and on the edge of my seat especially near the end.

The third act conflict was really good and not annoying miscommunication, it really made sense to the plot.

The Disneyland scenes omg!!!! And the slow burn was everything. Ethan was amazing!!! It was quite emotional towards the end. Just so good.

Highly recommend this. Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for the arc.

This was a really cute book, however the suspenseful aspect was not well done. I think it was integrated a little weirdly, and I'm not a huge fan of how the Cliffhanger was implemented. I think it should have ended with a clear cut ending, with maybe some unanswered questions with the side characters rather than unanswered questions for our main characters. Since this is supposed to be a series of interconnected standalones these unanswered questions for our main characters just doesn't make sense. Either way it was a cute romance and Ethan is an adorable main romance character

This book wasted no time getting me hooked. The combination of past and present were important in explaining Tiffany’s issues. Ethan is so well written, I love him. This was definitely a slower burn with the cutest moments between Tiffy and Ethan. For lovers of medical dramas and dreamy men.

Wow, I thoroughly enjoyed this book! I love a good romance and the added mystery in the story just made it so much better. I also work in the medical field, so that made me love it even more! Sometimes I’m not a fan of dual timelines in books as I often am less interested in one of them and want to rush through it to get back to the other, but this one was not the case. I was drawn in to both timelines and couldn’t wait to read what would happen next in either. Highly recommend this book, and I can’t wait for the next one!

Thank you to NetGalley for the digital ARC in exchange for my honest review.

I love medical romances. This book has a that with a side of suspense. It was wonderful! I’d recommend it to fellow readers!

**Thank you NetGalley for allowing me to read this ARC**

I feel like this book was way too fast paced. The romance and the “suspense” parts of this book could have definitely been drawn out more. I wished the flashbacks were more spread throughout the book rather than in chunks between chapters of present day chapters. I did enjoy the plot though.

I am not much of a suspense novel person but this was in combination with a romance story. Tiffany and Ethan both medical resident. Ethan is now working at the same hospital as Tiffany. At first these 2 don't get along. Tiffany has had a very rough past but she has worked hard to move on from that. When Tiffany and Ethan are sent away to a different hospital, the two of them become closer. Ethan has liked Tiffany from the start but it did take some time for her to come around. Tiffany has horrible nightmares surrounding her past and all of a sudden things come reality. Ethan finds out about her past, Tiffany faces a serious situation but in the end Ethan and Tiffany have nothing but love for each other. You get a mix of both suspense and romance in the story. It is from Tiffany's point of view. There is a spicy book and a sweet book. I had a spicy one and enjoyed it! I am sure both are great!

Tiffany and Ethan have a such a sweet slow burn romance! Ethan was a huge bright spot! I loved his passionate golden retriever energy but I really hated how he called her Tiffy. I can’t explain it, it just rubs me the wrong way. And this is coming from someone who was surprisingly very okay with Edwina being shorted to Ed and Weenie (in a Rivalry of Hearts). There was a lot about Tiffany and her story that I liked but felt very one dimensional at times. I really enjoying the mystery aspect regarding Tiffany’s past even tho I thought it would be more romance focused. I am very interested in knowing more about Tiffany’s parents, especially her dad!

I wasn’t a fan of the writing style and tone of the past chapters. Tiffany’s past timeline starts at age 5 and then jumps around but instead of her current self reflecting on past memories, it’s life through her younger self’s eyes. The dialogue/thoughts of 5 and 8 year old Tiffany sound exactly the same as her present day self and comes odd and a bit forced. Her childhood is really important to understanding her but I think it would have helped to have it condensed/written differently.

“Paging Dr. Hart” by Dr. Melissa Dymond is a sweet and exciting love story that presents us Dr. Tiffany Hart, who people call the Ice Queen, and Dr. Ethan Clark, a charming and handsome guy. Despite Tiffany’s tough past, when after a bad first impression she has to share an apartment with Ethan, she starts to like him. They face challenges together, especially when Tiffany’s past troubles come back to haunt them, the conflict is not very predictable and it’s good.

The book has interesting characters and lots of exciting moments. Tiffany’s journey from being guarded and alone to opening up to love is very interesting to follow even more when we have POVS from her past. The relationship between Tiffany and Ethan is full of tension and romance, keeping readers interested until the end. The characters grow on you, and in the end, when it’s over, you miss them without realizing it.

Dr. Dymond’s writing is touching and makes readers feel different emotions. The extra scenes in the author’s newsletter are a nice bonus since I would love to read some of the scenes from Ethan’s POV.

I loved the references to Taylor Swift and to the author’s other book that only those who have read it can catch the details of. Also, the book comes in different versions, spicy and sweet so everyone can enjoy it. And don’t worry, the book also comes with a glossary with medical vocabulary for those like me that don’t understand a lot about medicine. With its mix of love, challenges, and exciting moments, “Paging Dr. Hart” is a book that will make readers happy and wanting more.

*4.5/5⭐️ - Releasing June 17, 2024!**
Thank you to @netgalley and @melissadymondauthor and Victory Editing for sending me this ARC of the book in exchange for an honest review.

I enjoyed how there are two versions of the book, one spicy and one sweet, so you can pick your comfort level. I had the opportunity to read the “sweet” version. Plus, 10% of proceeds go to lung cancer research, which is wonderful.

Quote ❤️:
“I like you all the ways, happy and sad. I like all the Tiffany’s past, present, and future. I’ll take them all.”- Ethan is the BIGGEST green flag I swear.

The book includes medical discussions and explanations, making it easy to follow and really immersing you in the setting without feeling like you’re in the middle of Grey’s Anatomy. It’s an initial enemies-to-lovers story with the FMC having to deal with the new residency hire.

Short chapters made it easier to read, and overall, it was a refreshing book and a great palette cleanser. There’s a mix of suspense and romance, with the FMC dealing with her past struggles and trauma. I also enjoyed how the FMC struggles with her past and upbringing but finds ways to overcome it through education and personal development. She is a strong FMC! The beautiful art and designs throughout the book were a lovely touch as well.

I loved the bonus setting moments in Disney World, a place I’m very fond of and have many memories with, so that was a fun crossover.

I thought the beginning of the book held my interest more than the second half, but it was still enjoyable! This is a palette cleanser book and I loved how the balance between romance, suspense, and thrill throughout it. The two versions of the book make it ideal for any type of romance reader ❤️ I will be keeping an eye out for her next published work!📚

A great story . Tiffany and Ethan are both doctors and have to work together , he hates him because she has to train him and he also correct her in one of her lectures . When they spent one month in Cleveland in his old hospital they grow closer . Tiffany has a painfull past that makes her closed off . When they finally give their relationship a chance a person from her past comes back and threatens her happiness .
I received this book from netgalley and the publicer as an ARC . Thank you . All thoughts and opinions are my own .

Paging Dr. Hart by Melissa Dymond is a rom with a hint of com but with a whole side of drama. This love story has a serious undertone and addresses childhood trauma and it's long term affects, although there is some humor and lightness in the evolution of the relationship between the main characters.
I do like that the author made two versions, one spicy and one closed door so everyone can enjoy. Good thinking!
Thank you, NetGalley and Victory Editing Co-op, for early access to read Paging Dr. Hart. It's clear the author put an incredible amount of thought ..and heart into this book to add depth, emotion, and realism.

First of all, Thank You Netgalley for the ARC granted! I have to start this confessing that I only requested this book because it's date release, which is my BIRTHDAY haha. However I got surprised by how enjoyable it has been. After the medical entrance subjects at the very beginning, I could enjoy the progressing romance content(that is actualy the main thing of the story) and also that suspense plot as well. I have to give a praise to ETHAN character, because WHAT A MAAAAN! He is my guy parameter, seriously! The man is awesome built and well developed, and also has the exact characteristics I personally ove to read from a man's behaviour. Tiffanny is another great character, full of strenght and lessons to teach the reader, especially abut her flaws and her experiences, what made the story got to anther level of depht. It was my first contact with any of the author's titles and I aprreciated a lot!

Thank you Netgalley for the ARC for an honest opinion!

When I started this book, I thought it would be a cute workplace romance and while it is, there is so much more to this story.

Tiffany is a doctor who works in the radiology department. She’s know as an ice queen because she can keep her composure and keeps to herself. Little do people know, her troubled past is why she has this wall built around her. In comes, Dr. Ethan Clark. He is handsome and confident and knows what he wants. When they first meet, Tiffany and Ethan don’t start off on the best foot, however, Ethan works hard to show he isn’t the cocky guy he comes off as. He chips away at the walls Tiffany has had up for so long. Slowly, Tiffany begins to fall for him, while Ethan has loved her from the very beginning. However, when someone from her past finds her, he has to decide if he really wants to be with her or if her inability to trust him with her secrets is too much.

In this book, we see flashbacks to Tiffany’s past. My heart broke for young Tiffany and all the problems and trauma she endured as a child. Tiffany has had to walk the fine line of what’s right and wrong and doing what she has to do for her family. From family deaths to betrayals, it all happens to her by the time she’s 18. However, unlike her friends, Tiffany had her mother and a neighbor, Mr. Chen, to help keep here focused on school, all while growing up in the unsafe parts of Las Vegas. This gave Tiffany the motivation to continue studying to become a doctor.

Ethan just wants to be out of his families shadow. Coming from a parents who are doctors and a brother who is highly intelligent, Ethan just wants to find his own way. He has his own goals. However, when he meets Tiffany, he has another goal, to make her, his.

As I mentioned before, this book was so much more than just a workplace romance and I loved it. Once I started I did not want to put this down and There were twists that I was not expecting. I loved this book and I cannot wait to read the other books in the Dr. Hart world. I would recommend!

I went into this thinking I was getting a romance novel but was pleasantly surprised when there was some mystery along the way. Paging Dr. Hart had multiple timelines all based in Dr. Tiffany Hart’s life from past to present. It all somehow ties together to tell this thrilling story of childhood trauma, forgiving yourself, and letting people in. This was the first book of its kind that I read and I was not mad. It was like two of my favorite genres had a baby and it was this book. Definitely black cat x golden retriever vibes but with the patience and understanding of Ethan Clark this slow burn is totally worth it.

Romantic suspense isn’t my favorite sub-genre, but I really liked this book! Ethan (MMC) is the golden retriever of your book boyfriend dreams!! The man is a walking green flag, I just want to know where I can find my own Ethan in real life! I love how he pays attention to Tiffany (FMC) and always gives her what she needs. He pushes her boundaries gently but it always respectful of her limits.

This book had such a delicious slow burn that I was screaming at my kindle “kiss already!!!” But it suited the characters, and I LOVED the tension and build-up! I also loved the medical content; I work in healthcare, so I was easily able to understand what was going on. But even if you don’t, Dymond does a great job explaining everything without over-explaining.

There was so much mystery regarding Tiffany’s past throughout the book, but I loved the way Dymond wrapped up the story. Tiffany and Ethan’s story has a satisfying conclusion even though there are still some questions left unanswered. I can’t wait to read more books in this world!!

Omg I loved everything about this book. Ethan’s and Tiffany’s character development as enemies/coworkers to lovers was absolutely magnificent; full of tension and romance!! Ethan is such an amazing, confident, and intelligent man despite his families high expectations when it comes to being a doctor. After a career ending injury playing baseball, he found his calling in radiology and worked hard without using his family’s name. Tiffany was a strong FMC from childhood to adulthood. What she went through in her childhood was a shock to me. The back story is nail bitting and mind blowing. I thought that they would get caught so many times! But even though she took risk in order to help pay for her mom’s medical bills, she still succeeded in school like her mom always wanted for her. She became a phenomenal doctor and beat the odds against her growing up. I love how the author gave two completed different sides of Tiffany. It made the story even better.
