BOOK SUMMARY:

Lauren Taylor isn’t thinking about love, especially not with the impossibly attractive man she accidentally spilled coffee all over. He’s out of her league and she’s focused on finishing her oncology pharmacy residency. She’s sworn off men who are too handsome for their own good, anyway.

Andrew Bishop can’t stop thinking about the gorgeous redhead who crashed into him and then disappeared, even though he should have way more on his mind – like dealing with his Hodgkin Lymphoma diagnosis and finishing out his last year in law school. When Andrew and Lauren run into each other at the cancer center where she’s working and he’s being treated, they try to keep it professional. They can be friends, and nothing more.

But sometimes life has other plans…

MY HEART.

This admittedly had much heavier subject matter than I like to pick up. And I didn’t read the summary which means I was a little blindsided, but that’s okay because this book took over my entire day.

I loved loved loved the swoon. Good heavens the quotable moments melted me. I loved the relationship between Lauren and Andrew. Gosh it was so sweet. I was obsessed with every interaction, every call, text and passing glance. The forbidden love characteristics were perfect and the way Andrew could NOT do anything but love Lauren was amazing.

The banter and tension are top tier and the audiobook was incredible. It’s fast paced and easy to love every moment. I could love on this book all day.
