this was a cute book! I enjoyed the characters and the plot, but the writing style was probably the strongest for me. also the cover is super cute. def gonna add this to my collection

This turned out to be a really really good read. I like suspense with my romance and this had it. When Mikki decides to leave the ER for a helicopter rescue crew, her new team includes one hot mentor.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from NetGalley. The opinions expressed in this review are completely my own. Thank you for allowing me to review

Helicopter paramedic Tama James isn’t afraid of hard work, danger or putting his patients first, but when he is asked to train Mikayla Elliot, the superiors daughter, he believes she didn't earn the spot, and is set out to make it so difficult. It didn't go as he expected, because really she is the female version of him. She isn’t afraid of hard work, danger or putting his patients first, and she is a real doctor. It is a fun story, but because of their line of work, they discover things about themselves, which is more of how they are so alike.
They get paged and when they get to the call, there is a 15-year-old boy on a cliff that isn't sturdy. Mikki, is going to repel down to him, leaving Tama in the chopper. What happens then, will be like all three of their lives come together, and they all have had the same experiences in life. I am not going to spoil it for you. This story has so much depth of what life can make happen, to get people together, to help them process what they have always tried to bury, and see how it has affected their lives. It was so much more than I expected when I started reading, and it was amazing how Alison Roberts told their story.
I received an ARC from Boldwood Books through NetGalley.

Good storyline, but took awhile to get into it. Tama and Mikki worked well together and they did have chemistry. Just when it got really good at the end, it ended. I felt like the ending was cut short.

ARC Review: *Doctor Off Limits* by Alison Roberts

Prepare to be swept off your feet with *Doctor Off Limits*, a thrilling romance that sizzles with workplace tension, undeniable chemistry, and heart-stopping moments in the high-stakes world of helicopter paramedics!

Meet Tama James, the no-nonsense, tough-as-nails helicopter paramedic who doesn’t cut corners. He lives by the rules of the job—where danger is a daily companion, and every team member must earn their place. So when Mikayla Elliot, a *bubbly, beautiful doctor*, arrives as the newest recruit (and the superior’s daughter, no less!), Tama’s first instinct is to prove she’s not cut out for the grueling work.

Cue the *Enemies-to-Lovers* trope, where sparks fly and not just from the adrenaline of saving lives! Mikayla, far from being a privileged slacker, is determined to show Tama—and everyone else—that she deserves to be there. Her enthusiasm and passion for helping people shine, even as Tama tests her at every turn. But what neither of them can anticipate is the *undeniable attraction* simmering beneath the surface, ready to ignite.

The *Forced Proximity* of working long hours together and the intensity of their high-stakes job sets the perfect stage for their chemistry to catch fire. Mikayla’s infectious energy and Tama’s brooding intensity make for some electrifying moments—both in and out of the helicopter. Their journey from mistrust to mutual respect, and eventually to love, is a heartwarming rollercoaster, as they both wrestle with keeping things professional in the face of such irresistible pull.

As much as this story is packed with romance, it also delves into the world of emergency rescue, making the action-packed backdrop an exciting element that keeps the pages turning. Tama’s protective nature and Mikayla’s fierce independence create a dynamic that’s impossible not to root for.

*Doctor Off Limits* is a perfect blend of *slow-burn tension* and steamy romance wrapped in a whirlwind of life-saving drama. If you love romances with a dash of danger, high emotional stakes, and a happy-ever-after, this is one for you!

*Microtropes*: Enemies-to-Lovers, Tough Hero, Bubbly Heroine, Workplace Romance, Forced Proximity, Proving Yourself, HEA.

This was a quick and spicy romance about two people that are off limits to each other. I definitely enjoyed the writing style and topics. Alison Roberts has a way with words.

THankyou Netgalley for an arc of Doctor Off Limits by Alison Roberts

This book was amazing! I could not put it down. The romance was so cute and the story was beautifully written.

I liked this book. The tension and the character was cute ☺️. Sometimes it was a little hard to read because of some of the terminology I was unfamiliar with. Having said that a lot because I then googled it and found out various parts of helicopter medics

Mikayla es una doctora que necesita un certificado que avale su experiencia como paramedico aéreo, entonces su papá la ayuda a entrar en el equipo de Tama, ella no sabe que su padre utilizo su influencia y piensa que se ganó su lugar, pero Tama sabe la verdad, no está de acuerdo en ser niñero y entrenarla.

Ambos chocan constantemente por las ideas preconcebidas, sin embargo, pasarán mucho tiempo juntos, se conocerán y se darán cuenta que el otro no es como lo imaginaban.


Thanks to NetGalley, the publisher and the author for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

A medical romance, yes, please!! Doctor Off Limits has everything I love in a book. Pick this one up!
