It's Monday! What Are You Reading? April 18, 2022 #IMWAYR

It's Monday! What Are You Reading? is a place to meet up and share what you have been, are and about to be reading over the week. It's an opportunity to visit other blogs and to comment on their reads. And ... you can add to that ever growing TBR pile! So welcome everyone. This meme started with J Kaye's Blog and then was taken up by Sheila from Book Journey. Sheila then passed it on to Kathryn at the Book Date. And here we are!

**************************************

March 21st was the last Monday that I posted one of these posts. By that next Monday, we were already off on our 3-week road trip to see family and friends around the country. Our first stop was to attend Hubs aunt's 80th birthday celebration in Kansas City. It was great seeing family members that we haven't see in a long time. I hope I'm as spry and with it at 80 as Aunt Sandy is now.

Next planned stop was to see one of my best friends growing up, the maid of honor in our wedding many, many years ago. She figured out that we last saw each other 40 years ago! How does that happen and time fly by like that? It was so wonderful seeing her again and catching up. It was like old times, lots of laughs and reminiscing.

Our ultimate goal was to land in Tennessee (yep, a long way from South Dakota) to visit our son and his family. They recently moved there from Florida. Our grandson turned 13 while we were there and it was super special to celebrate his birthday with him. I totally loved all hugs and attention from the three grands, our son, and his wonderful wife. It's beautiful there in the Smoky Mountains and I can't wait to go back. I imagine it's spectacular in the fall with the changing colors.

So this week's post is for several weeks worth of reading, although it's a lot less than my normal reading would have been. With so much to see and do over the last three weeks, my reading life really suffered. I don't even want to know how far behind I am on my Goodreads goal. 😬

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you all have a good week.

Happy reading!

Release Day! Falling for Doctor Drop-Dead Gorgeous by Sophie-Leigh Robbins ~ My Thoughts #FallingForDoctorDropDeadGorgeous

Happy Release Day!

Congrats Sophie

on the release today of

Falling for Doctor Drop-Dead Gorgeous!

Falling for Doctor Drop-Dead Gorgeous by Sophie-Leigh Robbins

Series: That Wilson Charm Book 2

Published April 4, 2022 by Got It Covered Press

Hazel

Working at Portland Grace has always been fun, until Tanner Wilson arrives—or Doctor Drop-Dead Gorgeous as all the scrub nurses have started calling him. Not me, though. Just thinking about him gives me heart palpitations. Not only is Tanner my brother’s best friend, he’s also my new boss. A boss who looks way too good in scrubs.

To make matters worse, I’ve got to share an apartment with him, all thanks to my stupid brother who offered him our spare room. Ugh. Do you know how torturous is it to watch a hot doc scoop cereal into his mouth every morning and having to pretend he means nothing to you?

Tanner

Being offered Head of Trauma at Portland Grace is a dream come true, but I didn’t count on Hazel Green becoming my new scrub nurse. Don’t get me wrong, she’s good at her job, but to me she’ll always be my best friend’s little sister. Extremely cute, but also extremely off-limits.

As long as I can convince her that I don’t like her at all, I’ll be fine. At least, that’s the lie I keep telling myself.

My thoughts about Falling for Doctor Drop-Dead Gorgeous ~~

(I love to note the first lines of the books I'm reading. First lines can really grab a reader's attention and I love seeing where the author takes the reader after their first line.)

First line—"I shouldn't have drunk that second glass of prosecco on the plane, because now I'm seeing things. Not weird things like ghosts or dead celebrities."

You just gotta love a cute, fun rom-com but especially when it has a bit of a Grey's Anatomy feel to it. Who didn't love that show and McDreamy? Well, Falling for Doctor Drop-Dead Gorgeous has a McDreamy and a darling female who falls hard for him.

I loved this story, book #2 in the That Wilson Charm series. All of Sophie-Leigh Robbins's stories are such fun and I know I'll be having a entertaining read when I start one of her books.

Hazel and Tanner knew each other before Tanner started working at Hazel's hospital. But a near-miss kiss cooled any feelings they thought they might have had for each other. Thrown together again, are those feelings real, or will they drive a wedge between them?

Falling for Doctor Drop-Dead Gorgeous has all the ingredients for a perfect rom-com that will end just the way you want it to. I highly recommend it for a rousing bit of entertaining fun.

I received a copy of Falling for Doctor Drop-Dead Gorgeous from the author and this is my honest opinion.
