This is the first book that I have read by this author. I will definitely have to look into his catalogue of work. This was not a quick read, but I devoured it in one sitting.
Cynthia was not my favorite person at the beginning. Unpleasant people irritate me. Gender doesn't matter. I have no patience for unpleasant people. I could understand her lack of trust based on the environment in which she worked. The sharp responses to simple comments was unnecessary, but that's my issue, lol.
I was surprised at her reaction to the phone call and the events she subsequently had to endure. I really expected her to be calm, cool, collected, and clinical. I thought her vulnerability was a nice touch.
I loved Simon's character. He had a gentle air that did not diminish his masculinity in the least. It only served to enhance his strength, calm, and inner peace.
I did like Simon and Cynthia together. It felt like they were healing one another. There was a sensual aspect to their relationship that seemed to be an underlying factor almost from their first meeting.
I also appreciated the boss move Cynthia pulled at the hospital. She made one statement that was a dead giveaway as to what she was planning to do. Kudos! I thought that was impressive.
I liked the way Cynthia seemed to come into her own once she left Baltimore. I would have been interested to read about her mother's reactions to the changes in her life. I would give this book 4.5 stars.

Doctor Cynthia’s whole world is turned upside down in what feels a matter of seconds and even though she feels lost and struggling she never hesitates to step up for family. Becoming a somewhat mother figure to her niece overnight isn’t where she thought she would be, but as she tries to navigate this new role everything from her actions to thoughts are so relatable that you feel exactly what she is going through. Simon is absolute perfection always being there, lending a helping hand, listening, and just so caring you can’t help but adore this man. This story was so full of heart and emotions that you end up falling in love with the characters and wishing you had more time with them.
