Summary
Alex McHenry’s world stood still the day her father passed. She was 19, studying to be an art teacher, and living happily like any other college student. Then abruptly, her life was reduced to funeral arrangements, depression, therapy, and the responsibility of caring for her mother, who retreated to the couch to take solace in the artificially cheerful hosts on the Home Shopping Network.
After more than a year of living frozen in the moment of her father’s death, Alex decides to take the first steps out of her grief. She enrolls in a paramedic program and during one of her first classes, she meets Megan Callahan, a pretty but aloof medical student who comes crashing into her life at the most unexpected moment.
It’s not long before Alex discovers that Megan has her own skeletons in the proverbial closet, and when a bacterial outbreak forces them together, they must both decide whether to confront their demons together or continue to live in limbo.
Can Alex and Megan work together to mend their broken hearts? Or will they turn away in fear?
This is the first book in the Lakeside Hospital series. Each book can be enjoyed as a stand-alone novel and the series can be listened to in any order.
Critic reviews
"A slow burn with flirty friends that can’t seem to deny themselves the other one. What really makes this book shine is the fun, witty banter that these two have when they are together. I am so ready for book two." (Tiff at The Romantic Reader Blog)

Y.A
the story is really quite good, but too short, not enough to explore the characters in depth, and at 23/20 "I don't ever want to hurt again " ,is a ridiculous premise, they havnt started to live yet, if it were a series about them it would have worked.
and the narrator is robotic,
